When I play a film it plays for about 10 seconds then stops and then comes on again.

At my last flat I had a much higher speed and it still happened with my old PC and with this this one

Any ideas?

Its probably defaulting to playing in HD.
Click the option to change it to normal mode.

Is this just on YouTube or other video sites?

Can you try another device on your internet to eliminate the PC from the issue?

You need to disble DASH to force YouTube to buffer your whole video in one go.
Follow the instructions on this link I'm sending you and all should work well.

Try using a different browser also, try chrome. Could be to do with a cack on board graphics and hardware rendering.

Another thing you could try is to use html5 video on YouTube and see if it's any better than the flash based player.
