Is my graphics card the problem

dbnavan

Hi all,

I am running an oldish machine but it has done me for years with no real hassle, I have configured it to the way I need it but in the last few months I am having major issues with on line video eg you-tube, any time I play anything it is is choppy, out of sync and eating memory like the is no tomorrow, its usually in chrome but the same with all browsers.

Here is my spec

Try turning off hardware acceleration and see how that goes. Right click, settings, first tab.
