Can't stream full screen

[aldago]

I used to be able to click on the "full screen" button when viewing streaming video and the picture would fill the screen. Now I get nothing but a white screen. Can still hear the video but can't see it. I'm using a Dell Dimension 4300 with Windows XP Professional SP2 (SP3 won't install) with a 1.8GHz Intel processor and 1GB RAM. I'm using Firefox 3.6.13 although I get the same behavior with Internet Explorer. The Flash plugin version is 10.1.102.64. Anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be and how to fix it???

May be a corrupt display driver. Update to the latest display driver from the Dell site.

Generic Intel ,NVidia, ATI display drivers may not work on some laptops.

I have updated the video driver NVIDIA GEForce 2 MX but the result is the same. I tried the browser Safe Mode to see if there was some conflict with add-ons but no change. The lack of full screen only occurs with streaming. If I view a video with WMP or VLC player I can view it full screen with no difficulty.

The solution was given to me in another forum. For others who may have this problem the solution is:

Start the video.
Right-click the video.
Settings.
Leftmost tab, Display, uncheck Enable hardware acceleration.
Close.
