Anyone know how I can do this?
Hahahaha. Good one mate! TS, please be specific on what you mean by "better"... As far as I know the AAO can play almost every video format except for full HD. Even that, I'm not sure as I've not tried full HD videos on my AAO.
Like, sometimes when I'm watching youtube vids, it becomes kind of sluggish. The frame rate isn't too great. It's not horrible, but not that great either.
Three suggestions that might help: 1- If you haven't already, get rid of the bloatware that comes preinstalled, including the antivirus. Install a lighter AV such as AVG. Run msconfig and get rid of as many startup programs as possible, you don't really need Adobe Acrobat or Java or most other programs starting up and running in the background, they slow your system down. 2- Update your drivers, if you are using wifi, a driver update may help with connectivity. If you are using wifi, try hooking up via ethernet and see if you get the same problem. If not, it may be an issue with other devices interferring with your wifi (wireless phones are 2.4Ghz also, as well as several other common devices), changing the channel on your wireless router can help with this. 3- Ugrade your ram to 2Gigs. More ram allows more of the video to be buffered without using the page-file on the harddrive, so it all runs smoother. Keep the number of webpages open to a minimum to help your ram usage as well.
I'm not sure what the problem is. If you are logged on as an admin, you should have no problems. To be certain your account has admin rights, go to your control panel, and click on user accounts, then see what your user's account says.
