Flash Player Crashing in ALL Browsers

Flash plugin crashing on Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. This has been happening for months now. It's been fixed a few times, but it keeps happening again. Unable to watch YouTube videos on all broswers.

I have a PC (laptop) with Windows 7 (64-bit, I think). On Chrome I have version 10,2,154,18 installed. On Firefox: version 10,2,152,32 installed. On Internet Explorer: version 10,2,152,32 installed.

I work from home, so it's imperative that I not have this problem. Especially since it often interferes with Google Talk/Gmail Chat.

Thank you!

    I also had this problem and then it just stopped crashing. Very strange indeed!

    Hi, Since it's happening on all browsers, then there must be a common conflict. Have you tried turning off the hardware acceleration?  go to this site: http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/. Right click on the Flash logo, Settings,
    then UNcheck the hardware acceleration in Display Settings.

    If that doesn't solve it, you may need to update your video card driver also.

    At that same site linked to above, can you see the Flash logo animation? With all browsers?

    Thanks,
