    Dose yours do the same thing? There is no bandwidth problem as the video is
    already downloaded. I watch HD Mkv files, so I wonder why Youtube playback is not smooth!

    Btw I had my Nvidia 8400GT M let me down few weeks ago. I send to for repair on ebay and it's back working perfectly. Don't remember if I had this problem before !?

    It's a know issue with 8400M GT and 1080p flash player videos. 720p videos should play fine.

    Thanks coolguy,

    I hope there will be a fix because for sure this laptop IS able to show a 1080 HD movie! So it should not be a problem on youtube either. For now I download the video from youtube and then watch it with zoomplayer or vlc and no problem :)

    Maybe you can try disable flash hardware acceleration.
