Hi All, a new computer problem at this end has popped up, some times when things get slow around here I watch videos on youtube, now here is the problem, at random times the video just stops and the PC locks up, I have to do a power down reset to get back up, this just started in the last few weeks.
It a Dell all in Inspiron all in one, I have external fans mounted on it to keep it quite cool, and I don't think it's a hardware problem as all hardware scans and tests come up good.
The reason i'm using an all in one is that the old back is giving me some problems, the all in one is mounted right next to the lounge chair, so it is very convenient.
All hardware drivers are up to date, and firefox is the latest version, and window 7 ultimate is up to date.
So....Has anyone had this problem? And do they have a fix or maybe the cause??
Any help would be appreciated.
Pc hardware tech i am not but i wonder if its not a youtube problem?Youtube has a daily time exception
that seems to effect ppl differently some will get a warning you have exceeded your time limit i have heard some ppls pc have crashed.How are you using youtube straight from the site or from a kodi addon?I know you already know the scripting is different on kodi addons opposed to the sites.
I sometimes get different results using youtube on my playlists using xml and json scripts
xml

This may be not at all related to your problem but if i share my playlists some of those i share with have had problems with the time exceeded error using the xml script but not using the json script.
You might run into similar problems with the time exceeded error at youtube if you and others on your network
watch a lot I know i have read that some get the warning and some have had their pc`s crash.
