About 6 months ago, I began experiencing issues with streaming video online. Occasionally, my PC would completely crash while I was streaming video. I updated my graphics card drivers and it solved the crashing problem, but I began to have a new problem where anytime I would try to load video that was saved on my PC(like TV shows via media center), the display would freeze for 5-10 seconds while the audio continued to play. Then the video would start up and it was like nothing was wrong. Same thing would happen if I was watching something either with media center or youtube or whatever else and tried to set the video to full screen. This is not an HD-only problem, same thing happens with crappy quality videos on youtube. Lately, it's gotten much worse and media center has begun crashing my computer again. I don't have a great video card, but it's nice enough to where it doesn't need to be upgraded right this minute just to watch videos online, and I have plenty of RAM. Hardware specs are below. Any advice would be appreciated, it's gotten beyond frustrating. Oh, and I have updated my drivers 3 times since the issues started, including as recently as last week.
