For a while now, If i use HTML5 on any video website, it makes my who browser, and the video lag. This did not happen before. It should'nt happen as i've got more than sufficient running power with a quad core and 4gb of ram, as well as a DX10 card.

Anyone know what the issue is?

My crappy single core laptop does HTML5 fine. Also, i'm running 32-bit.
