Ive had horrible Youtube freezes + greenscreen when I start playing videos, today I turned off hardware acceleration and all lag stopped. but Im still wondering why hardware acceleration caused problems? could this be a problem with my gfx card/driver?

This is not unusual with Flash videos and it doesn't mean there's a problem with your hardware.
