    2 separate issues, first issue, youtube works fine in firefox but not in IE, it asks to install the flash player which I did a few times but I am still getting the same message?

    2nd issue, no matter which dvd I put into the unit I get the same error message BUT I get to see the first 5 seconds of a certain dvd every time I put it in the tray before the same error message appears?


    I went to the dell support and installed the ATI driver but problem still exists?

    Looks like it was a decoder issue, I installed powerdvd on the laptop and now the DVD rom works fine so that leaves only the Youtube/IE problem, any ideas?

    Got it done, installed the standalone flash player and that did the trick, you can close this thread, thanks.
