rebelrenegade1 and shadowxvampire, when you submit reports are you doing it through bugbase.adobe.com and using the steps outlined in the links I provided?

Thanks,

I can personally say the Adobe Flash plugin is constantly crashing on my Firefox browser. It runs fine for a bit and then the browser starts getting sluggish and then I get that dreaded message, Your Adobe Flash Plugin has crashed. I have sent numerous reports and I notice that dozens of other people are having the same issues. I have seen all sorts of people suggest fixes, but none of them are worth a darn. It usually crashes when I am on Facebook cause thats where I spend most of my free time. Any news on any upcoming fixes? Or does anyone at Adobe know what is causing the issue yet? It is getting rather frustrating. lol. I have done virus scans on my system and its clean. My video card is fairly new and I have plenty of RAM and hard drive space and everything else is good. I can run the top end store bought games that require a Pretty good system to run efficiently and it runs pretty fast until I bring the browser up and run Facebook. Any Help would be really appreciated.

Hi Chris,

I've done a bit of in-depth into this so I thought I'd share in the hope that it can be rectified.

Current System:

Win 7 Ultimate 64bit

AMD FX 6100+

Asus M5A97 PRO Bios 0902 (latest) (AMD chipset)

16Gb Corsair Vengeance

Onboard sound

Sapphire Tech 7950 OC edition

Microsoft wireless Keyboard

Microsoft Sidewinder Wired Mouse

All the above has most recent drivers.

Previous system (that had no faults)

AMD 64 X2 6400+

Asus M2NSLI DELUXE (latest bios) (Nvidia chipset)

4Gb Adata

Creative XF-i sound

Asus GTX460 Top

Microsoft wireless Keyboard

Microsoft Sidewinder Wired Mouse

All the above has most recent drivers.

Issue:

I've tried IE 32bit, 64bit and Firefox and they all get the same crash.

Crash description:

When I go to a web sight that runs flash; a good example of this that crashes every time. Lotto, instant wins, bingo and choose the auto reveal option. At this point the mouse pointer freezes on the screen, the lights on the mouse are non responsive, the keyboard doesn't work, not even the hub lights for "num lock" etc. If you press the reset button on the pc the screen goes black as if it's reset but there is a faint glow from the hdd led and that's as far as it gets. Only way to get the pc to restart is to hold down the power button till it switches off.

Upon reboot, any web pages that you added to favorites/bookmarks are lost.

There is no crash log and windows event log is clear.

Now, this happens with my current system, we can rule out the graphics card as that is new and the previous card (which also crashed the same, was an nvidia and not ATi). Tonight I created a backup of my drive with Acronis, formatted the drive and installed windows fresh. I had to install bundled motherboard drivers to get internet and usb running. I installed all windows updates and then installed flash. Went to the Lotto web site as above and CRASH!

So where is the problem??

Flash and windows7 64bit?

Flash and motherboards AMD chipset?

Any other info that I've missed out, feel free to ask.

Mark.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the details.  What will really help us would be a crash log, exact URL and a dxdiag system report.  If you can gather that information (using just Internet Explorer would be fine) and create a new bug report over at bugbase.adobe.com we can investigate further.

This page has step by step instructions on what to do:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/839/cpsid_83975.html

Thanks,

Hi Gajananam,

HPE 180t desktop.

So this is your pc? http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/Document.jsp?objectID=c01976263&lang=en&cc=us&taskId=101&contentType=SupportFAQ&prodSeriesId=4079700&prodTypeId=12454#A0

This should your Motherboard. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=uk&lc=en&docname=c01901210

Sound options for you pc according to HP are...

Sound  Must select one of the following options:

  • Integrated 7.1 Sound (7.1 capable sound with front audio ports)

  • SoundBlaster X-Fi Xtreme  

  • SoundBlaster X-Fi XtremeGamer 

I'm guessing you have the first one?

From your pc spec you'd be best going for a PCI-Express x1 card. As there is no guarantee this is going to fix your problem and I don't know if your symptoms are the same as mine I'd try a cheap card.

Here are all the pci-e x1 cards on this site. http://www.dabs.com/category/components-and-storage,graphics--tv-tuners-and-i-o,sound/11140-4294944981

You don't have to buy it from there of course, it's just to give you an idea.

manual for your pc. http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02067973.pdf (page 28 for adding a card)

Before you do any of this. Try upgrading your drivers. graphics, sound, motherboard chipset...etc.


Dear Mark: One more question, before I embark on replacing the sound card. To absolutely make sure, sound card is my problem, suppose I uninstalled the driver for realtek, followed by disabling the onboard audio. So I will have no sound. If my flash player still crashes, can we deduce that it is not the sound card, may be it is something else?

--Thanks again for your help
