Studio 1747 crashing with 1080p video.

Has anyone had their Studio 1747 with a 1080p screen crash while playing 1080p video full screen?

I tried playing a movie trailer full screen in 1080p on youtube and mine crashed.

 

I haven't had any trouble with mine but I've read of others having the same problem here:

There are a lot of posts to read through! But some of them are from Dell reps so it is a good one to follow if you own the 1747.

 

yes I had a GPU crash when watching the 300 movie on 1080p. I found a way to overcome buy turning the scale thing off on VLC. The computer doesn't crash when playing but before you do something on the computer while watching, pause the video, other wise it will crash.
For youtube you have to disable the acceleration.
I'm using the ATI video driver form dell CD not the one on the web site.
Hope it helps.
Please feed back if this solved your prblem.
Thanks

 

Do you guys have an example of such video on youtube? Haven't seen any 1080p yet. Using 9.12 driver from ATI that's modded. Dell's video driver sucks.

Edit: Went to play a few videos in IE and one of them did crash. I think it's the ATI driver and flash. Going to try 10.1 driver from ATI and maybe beta flash.
