Cait Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Could just be that your broadband is slow? How much RAM have you got? It sounds as though it's taking a long time to load into your buffer. Have you tried walking away and letting it get on with it and then sliding it back to the beginning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I sometimes have a problem if i make the screen bigger it seems to work better for me when you keep the video on a smaller screen. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumperrabbit Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I have exactly the same problem - you need to do what Cait says then it does work (for me anyway) Wish they weren't taking it off the telly to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickynooblue Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 my laptop has windows 7 and whenever I have a PC problem I turn to my lovely husband who explains to me what the solution is just as if I were a child in his PC for Idiots class - he works for PC World - oh how life was so much easier when he managed Homebase. I digress - I was having the exact same problem when he explained that windows 7 is not able to accept the lastest flash thing - something to do with 32 and 64 bit - had switched off at that point - anyway he downloaded Google Chrome - SORTED!!! Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surfer Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Have you tried down loading them first and then watching your downloaded copy? You do have to register but it doesn't take long and then you can rewatch the programmes and use them for training with staff etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
