Adobe Flash:

I cant seem to get a problem signature for this one. But it happens for 10.3 or 11 on Firefox 17.01 or Firefox 18 Beta.

Any help would be appreciated as right now I can't watch Hulu, youtube or DVDs.

The problems are originating from M_fps.dll (Windows Media Foundation) which is an extensive library covering all sorts of media related things, audio, video, directx, stream control, etc. Only suggestion I have at the moment is to ensure you have latest video/audio drivers installed.

They are both up to date. It seems they all work fine right after a restart.

Computer is now taking about 10-15 minutes to boot up. After boot, it seems fine other than programs crashing. I'm thinking it might be my hard drive?
