Google Chrome

I have windows XP with google chrome, IE8 and FF.

When i use chrome to watch youtube videos, when the page loads the
video section is just black, I have to refresh the page 4 or 5 times
then the video will start to load. The flash and java is up to date,
the other browsers don't have this issue its just chrome.

Does anyone know what could be wrong?

The only thing that comes to mind is that google chrome is crap! I
don't know why people are using this browser and expect Microsoft to
solve any lingering problems. Have you tried to ask people at Google?
they seem to have a very healthy population on their group forums.
Surely, there must be some google-pig who knows the answer.

Sure: Your problem has nothing to do with WinXP OS.

I have seen that occasionally with Chrome, but I don't watch too many
videos. Trying again does seem to work. If it never worked, I might
really be unhappy with Chrome.

Once you get the hang of it and get it dialed in, it's not too bad for
my purposes. I never use FF or IE anymore except to troubleshoot a
problem for somebody that has not been converted yet.

Are you running Chrome version 4.0.249.78 (36714)? That is the update
I just got.

I have also seen Adobe PDF files hang Chrome sometimes and can't
remember how I got that working. Not a problem anymore.

I don't think they quite have their updating down yet and their help
forums are just okay, but I have only had that one problem that
annoyed me enough to seek outside help.

That would be a question for Google Chrome support.

Unfortunately, Google's CHROME is a piece of doo-doo. Chuck it.

Google has about less expertise in writing browsers than Microsoft does in
search engines.
