    Update your flash player. And also update your video card drivers. For both video cards.

    The card that is most likely used when running YouTube would be the built-in Intel video card. Grab the latest driver msi's support page. And to make sure your flash is fully updated, Google "flash player test". Adobe has a page that will detect which version you have. Good luck!
