I have a P4 2.4ghz processor along with 512mb ram. Whenever i play flash games online, my whole computer gets stuck. I have installed the latest version of flash player, shockwave player and java. What is the reason the computer gets stuck when playing flash games online ??

If the site displays a lot of flash files, Firefox will choke. Try installing the Flashblock add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/433 and then only display the game flash file, leaving the others disabled.

it applies to all flash content... if the page contains a lot of flash content, Firefox will run sluggish... block all flash and just allow the one(s) you want...

I don't know whether a lot of memory is required for flash games, but 512mb of ram isn't enough for today's applications and games. I upgraded to 768mb and that's still not really enough. You should think about upgrading your RAM to at least a gigabyte. Of course, if you have a Windows pc, there could be other problems that are causing your computer to lock up.

More ram is ok for games when playing in computer. But flash games online won't require that much graphics requirements.

Hey, I don't really know how to help, for me, flash games don't get stuck, they play normally. Hopefully someone else will be able to answer your question better than I have done, in a really good way so you can actually benefit from it. Make sure you have a good day, Happy Lotting!!

Flash game is the most thin and light in processor usage game. 512MB RAM is more then enough. If your computer gets stuck, then you should check maybe there are other programs that blocking such as firewall, anti virus and other programs with such function. Or maybe your browser not supported or the site that your visiting has a malware. BR.b

I will put it the best way I know how it is because flash games suck. I played them when I had nothing else to do but yea they just are not that fun.
