I have an HP w2207h widescreen flat-panel Monitor. When I try to view videos ONLINE, such as YouTube, in full screen mode, the screen goes to a blank white screen. Audio works, no picture. However, when I view the same YouTube video in Internet Explorer everything works fine. Is there a setting I need to put to fix this? Would appreciate your help!
