Greetings,

I've yet upgraded to 9.0.115.0 and installed successfully. However I noticed videos in fullscreen gives screen such as following scrreenshot:

I have uninstalled using uninstall utility, and reinstalled it cleaner. Problem did not change. I thought it might be problem of my FLV player, so I decided to try on various websites such as infamous Youtube. Fullscreen error was exactly same.

Currently my computer specs are following:
Intel Core2Quad 6600 @2.4 GHz
2,048 MB of Ram
Palit ATI Radeon HD2600 XT , 512 MB video card...
Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit
Screen Resolution: 1680x1050
Tried and got same result on : IE7, Firefox and Opera

It worked perfectly on my virtual PC using Windows XP, however did same on my other friend's Windows Vista. Every animation and video plays perfectly fine as in normal, but fullscreen video is out of question (note: fullscreen audio still playing as well). Problem here is only on Fullscreen and only on Windows Vista and all browsers. However, since I know where controls of player are, I can actually click them by guessing where they are etc. on video player, just no image of them nor no image in video just screen such as above. Also not to mention turning back to original page using ESC key, re-renders entire page (very slowly) on every browser, IE, Firefox, Opera...

    I am having two flash problems similar to this. One is on random occations my audio and video will be out of sync while watching flash based video players (megavideo, you tube, etc) and on occation it will only play for three seconds then stop, if i click the progress bar it plays for another three.)
    The second problem is the one already voiced, if i full screen a player the image freezes, it does not matter if i'm using hardware acceleration or not. Here are my specs
    Vista Ultimate 32bit
    Quad core intel 2.4 (q6600)
    4 Gigs 1066Mhz Ram
    Abit IX38 mobo
    MSI NVIDIA GT8800 512Mb Ram
    Zalman cooling fans in a antec 182 case
    24'' samsung lcd using dvi connection

    So obviously this problem isn't restricted to ati. What happened adobe? This is really a huge problem and I have heard no solutions for it. This is really hurting your reputation.

    My XP works great on my old computer, problem is I now have everything loaded on my newer computer along with printers, external hard drive, fax etc. Vista even looses one of my printers almost on a daily basis, where I either have to go to add a printer or reboot. That is why i'm trying to get the scoop on the new service pack 1 download. I'm sure the answer is somewhere on this forum, but where?

    With Vista all it's down. I'm useing XP and it's ok with it.
    I suggest that you use Windows Xp.

    No problems with my old XP, but newer computer with vista many problems.
    Can anyone tell me if downloading MS service pack 1 for vista would correct these problems??

    New Upgrade offered today..version 9,0,124,0. This fixed the problem with fullscreen video with hardware acceleration enabled!!

    No, not really, Vista 100% stable now especially after SP1, there is no doubt to it. It was just problem of ATI or Adobe's missight on the problem. It is currently fixed without any modifications to Vista. There is whole another 2 years before Windows 7 so does not matter at the point.

    The bug is related to graphic card HW acceleration and support for video on Vista.Probably player call wrong directx method. It s not yet fixed at the moment and is an Adobe bug
