This is an issue I personally have encountered on my own system related to Adobe Flash version 10.1. Most people who encounter this issue have a dedicated graphics card. The new version of Adobe Flash has full graphics card (GPU) access and Flash will incorrectly call a GPU out of “power-save mode” which causes a driver crash. In my particular instance, this caused my system to throw a blue screen error.
In order to fix this issue, Flash hardware acceleration must be disabled. The good news is that this should not cause any performance differences. The ironic part is that you must change the Adobe Flash settings from within a Flash video; Youtube is a clean example that should remain stable long enough to make settings changes.
Select any video and once it begins playing:
1) Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Macintosh) the application image during playback.
2) From the context menu, select Settings. The Display panel is the first panel shown.
3) Once in the settings window, there will be a check box for “Enable Hardware acceleration”. Un-check the box and close the window.
