    Does anyone have this problem ? Youtube stuttering and breaking up on my brand new T400? Is it a Windows 7 problem or a T400 problem? Normal DVDs etc playback is great no problem there but You-Tubes are un-watchable (if that even is a word)... any help or suggestions ?

    which OS, internet browser, GPU, and flash player version. Have you switched on hardware acceleration in the flash player property.

    Hardware acceleration in Flash 10.0 does nothing. Grab the latest Flash 10.1 beta (ActiveX download for IE and Windows download for FF, Chrome, etc.) to see much less stuttering. Flash will always be a resource hog, IMHO.

    The T400 should be able to play them fine, even without 10.1


    Could be a bandwidth problem...

    Seems to be OK now.... thinking it was a Mozilla Firefox issue; T400 is a fine machine; Would love to try a T400s since I like lighter machines but hey too much money.
