I have IE9 installed on Windows 7 64bit with all the latest updates. For some reason I cannot play videos from some websites like vimeo.com using IE9 but they play fine using Google Chrome. I have unistalled and reinstalled Flash player with no luck.

Can you try if disabling Hardware Acceleration improves the situation; see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/891337

If it does, then updating the device drivers for your display adapter could be a permanent solution; see http://forums.adobe.com/thread/945765


Thank you – I just figured it out. NVDIA Control panel lets you choose graphic drivers by program. As soon as I switched from automatically select to integrated graphics the problem stopped.

Thank you for all your help.

Thank you – Checked both Flash player shows as installed correctly and Active X filter is off. Video crashes IE9 only on some websites

Can you describe your problem in more details?  You wrote "cannot play videos from some websites" and "Video crashes IE9" - what exactly is happening?  And can you provide a URL where you see that happening?
