Hi,

Raspbian is installed on a raspberry pi 3 and everytime I play a some flash videos the pi crashes and restarts. For example playing the flash content from starfall.com ( http://more2.starfall.com/m/level-k/col ... &n=red&y=1& ) causes it to crash, any ideas what migh be happening ? my system details are below.
I have already done update and upgrade

Code: Select all
