Amazing. I just googled for such a solution and here it is. Where as when I attempt the HP or microsoft websites for such a solution, they beat around the bush (like all the time). Thanks.

For those struggling with this issue I tried everything suggested here and nothing was working. When I tried Sanjoy's suggeston of...Tools->Manage Add-Ons->Enable or Disable Add-ons and enabled Shockwave Flash Object...it worked immediately without restarting...sheesh i really hate vista but thanks to Sanjoy i can now view Utube and fancast. i could then couldn't but this seems to work.
Thanks Sanjoy and all.

EXCELLENT!
Clear and easy to follow .. and WORKS!

I wish you could help with the HP support desk. They don't understand a thing I write... they only know how to cut and paste things as "solutions" that don't work.

Please help me... I can not download the flash player to my computer. I follow the above instructions, but when I get into the Macromed directory, there is no Flash directory so I can't go any farther. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks ever so much for the clear details on installing Falsh player. Wasted so much time trying to do this but your step by step guide was excellent.

This didn't work for me. I know you can run the Flash Player in a 32 bit browser but when I click Start and go to All Programs, it doesn't display the 32 bit or even the 64 bit. I never deleted the browser or anything. I don't know what happened and I even tried the advanced search on my computer. Nothing. It's so frustrating!!!

Here is somethng that worked for me. I have IE7 on 32-bit Vista. After trying everything that I found on the internet I went into Tools->Manage Add-Ons->Enable or Disable Add-ons and enabled Shockwave Flash Object and it worked. You have to be on a page that has a flash object, i.e. the page that is giving you the message to install Flash Player. Hope it works for others.
