flashplayer crashes all the time
Hi there,
I have browsed the forums a bit to find a solution to this, but even the link to the page which allows you to disable the hardware acceleration ends in flash player crashing. I have updated to the latest version of flash, and it just makes the problem worse. If I open up ANY site with flash on it, my computer will hang, and I get that little message saying 'Prevent this happening again' with the tick box, so I tick and hit ok, and 2 secs later the same happens. I have to go through this heaps to get a page I can read, then next time I load the page, I have to go through the same process. Can anybody point me to a solution?
Cheers :)
My latest crash reports are these:

Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if it opens?
- Windows: Hold the SHIFT key while double clicking the Firefox icon on your Desktop
- Mac: Hold the OPTION key while double clicking Firefox in your Applications folder
- Linux: Run the firefox -safe-mode command in your Terminal/Konsole (Ubuntu/Kubuntu)
Try disabling Hardware Acceleration.
- Go to this Adobe Flash Player Help page.
- Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
- Click on Settings in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
- Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel.
The image "fpSettings1.PNG" does not exist.
- Remove the check mark from Enable hardware acceleration.
- Click Close to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
- Restart Firefox.
This Flash Player Help - Display Settings page has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.

Hi Moses, thanks for your reply. I have seen that on other replies to my question.
Firstly, I can open firefox, but as soon as I hit a flash player page, it hangs and then crashes or takes ages (I am talking at least 5 odd minutes here!) to carry on, and then struggles like sin, so I'm not sure how starting in safe mode would help me.....?
Secondly, flash crashes when I try to load the page you suggest for disabling the hardware acceleration, so can't even try that. It got to the point today where I just uninstalled adobe flash today, which has improved my life no end! ;) Problem is that soo many websites require it these days, that I will have to reinstall it at some point and suffer the same issues.....
Any thoughts on how to overcome this? Can I disable hardware acceleration without going to the page you suggest?
Thanks :)
hello, maybe it's an issue with the protected mode in the flash plugin - you could try if disabling protected mode makes a difference.
