Author	Flash player problem with Vista
HornyNick Joined: Mar 09, 2008 Posts: 77 PM	Posted: 2008-04-04 01:35 HELP!!!! I bought a laptop about 3 weeks ago and everything has been fine until about 4 days ago, as i shut it down it installed a load of updates from microsoft. Ever since then flash player does not work! When ever im on a site that uses flash it tells me to download the latest version, so i do and im told that it has installed successfully but when i restart the laptop and go to the same site, or another it tellls me to get lost again. I've been through internet options but could not find anything relating to flash. The only thing i can thnk of is that the last microsoft updates have somehow screwed things up. Has anyone else had these problems, or have an idea of how to sort it before the laptop gets thrown the nearest window? Many thanks Nick.

This whole thing's like some sort of race. Instead of winning what I want... I'm sitting here in second place!!! It's Raining, It's Pouring... Oh sh1t, it's Global Warming.

Firefox came pre-installed so i will have a play with it and see what happens. Never really bothered before, didnt see the point.
