Can not watch any video-very,very slow

[BOB1901]

When ever I watch any video it starts and stops (long or short). Was having trouble with both IE*,FF18.0.1 in that they would not load pages (took 2-5 min a page). Now that is OK.Maybe I screwed up some thing fixing that problem.I have done a few speed tests (have FIOS) AT SPEEDTEST.NET and others AND d/l 19.6, u/l 4.63. Below is sys info,not sure if its what you might need.

We do not need all that info you posted.

Check that your flash player version is the latest. Your ISP may also be throttling traffic (though I think that's unlikely).

Also, it doesn't say what kind of a CPU you have in the specs of your PC that you posted.

I found out I needed new drivers for my video card.That seems to have worked.
