Flash Player 10.1 very slow

  • October 5, 2010

We are running several HP 8000 Elite with Intel G45/G43 Express chipset under Windows XP SP3. As soon as we upgrade Adobe Flash Player to version 10.1 videos are played very slowly. No matter if we use IE7 or IE8.


We are running the latest graphic and chipset drivers. BIOS was updated too. Flash hardware acceleration has been disabled without any change in behavior. Windows updates are up to date.

All older versions of Flash Player work fine.

Is this a known problem? Are there any solutions?

Thanks for your response

    Hi, This thread may be helpful even tho your HP edition is different and you have already updated your BIOS.

    The only thing I could add is that HP have a Preventive Scan that has caused other HP users problems with Flash Player.

    The following site has Video harware support and a list of Vendors that has additional information:

    Hi, That is certainly good news. I'm glad that person posted that info on that thread!! Strange that the problem exists on two different editions of HP though.

    I'm always happy when issues are solved and appreciate when people share their solutions since it helps others.

    Thanks for marking your thread as answered too. That is so helpful when using the "Search forum" feature for a particular problem.
