    First I'd recommend updating to the latest ATI drivers if possible.  If that does help, see if disabling hardware acceleration makes a difference:

    Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?

    How do I disable or enable hardware acceleration?

    i have it. i don't see hardware acceleration in it. i can disable it in flash settings for youtube but why should i have too? this should work with it on.

    this is the driver i got. http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/radeon-prer300-xp.aspx

    Those drivers are 7 years old.  It's very possible that they shipped with a bug that wasn't exposed since Flash wasn't using the GPU at that time.  Were you able to get previous versions of Flash Player working with your system?
