My once 100% stable system now has developed an issue after I upgraded my GPU to an EVGA Geforce GTX 660 Ti SC 3GB. Whenever I try and watch an embedded streaming video on sites like YouTube, IGN, ZDNet etc...all I get is a messed up picture that is nothing more than a garbled pink image with broken text playing at high speed for about 3 seconds, then my system will freeze.
I receive no Kernel Panic, no problem logged in console, can still hear audio, and I can move the mouse pointer but the screen is frozen and I have to do a hard reset. I can however quickly close the browser window before the 3 seconds and all is good. What is odd about the situation is that not all streaming videos are affected; The 30 second add before the main videos always play fine. All anime and adult sites I tested work fine also.
I have tried changing browsers to no effect. All of my drivers/BIOS are up to date, as well as Chameleon (r2165) and Flash. I have even applied the OpenCl patch, and double checked the nVidia kexts to make sure my card's device ID is present. Playing movies (avi, mov, mp4 etc) from the oldest of QT movies to full 1080p HD, all work great!
Questions? Comments? Suggestions?!
