I'm using internet explorer 7 and when I run two tabs of toutube videos, internet explorer always crashes. I've tried this with my other computer and it can run two youtube tabs without crashing. Why is this happening? I've scanned both computers with anti virus and spyware, and both have nothing. The computer that is crashing has the same RAM, bigger hard drive, and a pentium 4 processor. The other one that doesnt crash has a celeron processor. What is going on?

Everyone keeps saying update drivers. How do I do that?

I've been hearing a ton of problems with ie7 and in my mind its probably another case of MS putting out a release that is still buggy and should still be in beta. I'm a diehard Firefox user so the IE on my comp is still ver 6. I'm not sure how successful you would be to get back to version 6 so I would suggest download and running Firefox to deal with your crashing problems. Your problem with 7 sounds like a memory addressing problem.

IE7 problems are going to be discovered more and more
there is sites that i cant open with IE7 but i can with IE6
It tells me that the there is a problem with websites coding
I thing with IE6 designing a site wasnt as bad couse if you made a mistake IE6 would understand the mistake and wouldnt react
But IE7 doesnt understand it IT HAS TO BE PERFECT

you know - i'm tired of everyone blaming ie7 and Bush for everything.
It's not ie7 (obviously). It has to do with your drivers - most likely the audio or video drivers. Go to the websites of the manufacturer of the sound and graphics card (or chip). Install their latest drivers. Restart, Enjoy.
P.S. for all you ie6 holdouts, upgrade.
P.S.S. for all you firefox fans, yawn! You still need ie to run some sites cause firefox cant...dontcha???

well since it only happens when you run two videos in two different tabs..i doubt its a video problem...it could be a sound problem.
since its streaming two different videos, its streaming 2 sound clips as well...but since the videos are not played together...its not video..id update sound drivers and check again...otherwise...i need more info

I can give you a link that deals with hard drive problems.
Some RAM/ hard drive problems can be easily fixed yourself by using easily available tools. I found the info at http://fixit.in useful

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
