Error message "Warning: Unresponsive Plugin" flash crashes when not connected to HDMI

EVERY time I try to open a web page that has a video like Facebook or Youtube, I get an error message saying "Warning: Unresponsive Plugin" and the flash ultimately crashes. I tried updating the flash plugin and the problem was not solved. I recently noticed that when I plugged my laptop to my HDTV via an HDMI cable that this problem was not occuring. As soon as I took out the HDMI cable and went to Youtube I got the error message. Is there an option that might need to be changed that's causing this problem? I tried opening those pages in Internet Explorer and got a very similar error. It's probably not a Firefox problem but I'm hoping to find out if there is something in my PC that needs to be modified for this error to not occur again.

Hi alrayes,

I suspect it is an issue with your video drivers.

If you go to your PC manufacturer's website (e.g. Dell, HP,...) and look up your model they should have links to download the drivers.

Alternatively, (assuming your PC does not have integrated graphics) you can go to your video card manufacturer's website, and they will have the very latest drivers.

Let us know if you figure it out.
