Videos are very demanding on any computer. Most times you simply need to X out of the video and click on the View Video button again (sort of like restarting your computer).
To view any videos, it's best to have the latest version of Flash player on your computer. You can download it free at www.adobe.com.
You may have a slower Internet connection or a video card in your computer that is not at least 64 meg. If so, once you start to play the video, click on the Pause (=) button and let the video buffer by watching the darker grey line progress at the bottom of the video. Once the darker grey line has gone all the way across, click the play button to start the video.
