Thank you Chris

Thanks.  I'm seeing the same thing.  Confirming with our Chrome team and will let you know what they say.

Ok, I found out that this is expected behavior.  The display tab, and specifically the "enable hardware" acceleration option were removed from Chrome because Chrome will use the GPU regardless of this setting.  To reduce confusion, the tab was removed.  Instead, you can try disabling by going to the chrome://flags page and disabling "GPU compositing on all pages"  Once done, simply restart the browser.

Chris,

Thank you. Unfortunately, going to chrome://flags and disabling "GPU compositing on all pages” did not resolve my root problem which is that when I play any flash video in the full screen mode, I get a blank screen. I was trying to access the display tab in settings to disable hardware acceleration since it appears from a multitude of sites on the Web to be one way to resolve this problem?

Many thanks for your help,

Paul

Pat,

It is not clear to me as to how to attach or post a .txt file?
