My PC freezes when I watch video/stream in browsers
- marcosag1996Apr 27, 2024Copper ContributorI just installed Opera and I still having the same issue. It is not a lag issue, is exactly as I explain above. The video just suddenly freezes and sometimes the only solution is forcing a turn off.

have you checked your graphics card driver?
maybe even run cmd prompt as admin
type sfc /scannow to check any corruptions in system files
download driver reviver and check for outdated drivers its free thats if microsoft update shows none thereif your inexperienced with driver configurations and installs
i reccomend the driver reviver software as it will scan / download / install drivers for you
free version allows 1 install at a time but will allow you to update all outdated drivers free
your display 1 and display drivers are different on my laptop
display 1 and display 2 are both using the same ones try switch them both to nividia if you know how to or i can send a tutorial.. regardless do try driver reviver
sounds like graphics memory issue from my personal experiences- marcosag1996Apr 27, 2024Copper ContributorI also set up the Nvidia control panel's browsers to ensure they use Nvidia GPU to run videos, but it doesn't work either.
