Competer+Videos= !@#$%

Do I need to buy a better video card?
My computer can't play videos on the internet or anywhere else. (high speed internet) It just shows up as chopped up pictures and sound. The videos load really good considering how slow my computer is. Anyways do I need to buy a vid card?

Don't be fooled by the name. Video cards are for rendering graphics such as in a 3D game. They have practically nothing to do with videos. The problem most likely lies with your internet connection.

Is it just youtube you're trying to watch videos on. If it is try to download the latest flash player. try going to www.speedtest.net and check how fast your internet speed is

It's all videos. It's NOT the internet cause there's another computer in the house that plays them fine.

What is your CPU usage at when you are trying to watch these videos?

You say your computer is slow? Exactly how old is it? What are the specs?
