About a week ago, I had started listening to a you-tube vid of Andreai Boccelli and about 2 mins into the vid, the music stopped, & in its place came a extremely loud siren type of sound. Actually it sounded a lot like a fire siren. It seemed to be everywhere in my laptop, the sound was piercing, & to tell the truth, I was scared the computer was going to blow up. I tried everything to shut it down, but the computer was frozen and i could not stop it. It seemed to have gone on for the whole length of the vid. Then it stopped. & everything went back to normal. It freaked me out, as I've never experienced anything like that before. I posted on here about it, but no one knew what would have caused it. Got any clues Stargazer.
That's a good one..

First impression would be a hardware lock on your sound card....

The sound card malfunctioned and caused the operating system to lock.

Does it play music (mp3) with no problems??

Is it a laptop or desktop??

The software that runs the videos is a flash player which could also have an error..

Here is a page to re-install
