Why does my computer screen go white every time I try to maximize a video screen?

By · Saturday, July 3rd, 2010

This happens not only on youtube but in other places where I can watch videos. The screen becomes completely white and I have to press escape and get out of full screen to make it return to normal. Why is this? Is it a virus?

No, this is not a virus.

This indicates an issue with your Flash plug-in on the web browser (YouTube and other popular video sharing sites use the Flash Video Player).

Here’s how to install/update Flash plug-in and fix this issue:
1. go to: http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
2. select "Agree and install now". You may uncheck the optional "Free McAfee® Security Scan Plus".
3. follow the instruction given in the installation process to update your browser’s Flash plug-in.
4. done!

You might have to restart your computer for the changes to take effect. If the problem still persist after the Flash plug-in update, then this is a hint that your video card is giving trouble.
