So I used to be able to watch two different youtube videos or at least have two different flash programs open on two different monitors. Now whenever I have a video open on one monitor, I can't even click on the video loaded in the other monitor without it crashing. If I'm playing a flash game on one monitor and watching youtube on the other, I can't click on the game without flash freezing, too. Yes, hardware acceleration is off. Here is the crash report. https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/fbf957bd-5028-4de0-abda-780ea2150405

I tried to test two youtube videos on two monitors and it did not crash. I am guessing its os related. (This is the first screenshot)

I then tested one in fullscreen and a game and with farmville in the other screen. This is where I started to see some issues. I did find a work around in the meantime however. I watched the youtube video in HTML5 player and loaded farmvill before starting the video in fullscreen.
