Browser error
I am using IE8 as of now and this browser cant seem to load some videos from a certain site. It is displayed as a blank white window with a small icon at the top left of the window. When i use another browser (Google Chrome), it is able to load the video with any problems.
Can anyone help? |

Since that's RC1, it means that browser is far from okay: there will be issues with certain plugins, especially with video, Silverlight and Flash.
Try to revert to "compatibility view" (IE7-style) if that'll work.

Expect problems with anything related to flash when it comes to pre-production builds (wathever the browser). Its normal, you can switch browser, do as number 547 said or just simply forget about them and wait for the official final release. Re-Installing flash may also solve your problem.

Thanks for the suggestions. Pity reverting the compatability did not work. Seems like i will be with Google Chrome for awhile. Anyways, the problem i encountered, it only did not work for that certain video. Other videos from the site can work. I tested the non-working video on another computer and it works though.
Any further help/suggestions will be deeply appreciated. Note: can i downgrade my IE? For a weird reason, my Firefox cant seem to start up and i do not know why either. =/ Cheers |

1.) I think downgrading IE back to 7 is near-impossible because IE8 replaced most of the system files used by IE7.
2.) Have you tried to uninstall Firefox, and then reinstall? Or used Opera?
