[Help] YouTube videos load, don't play

[Electrix]

Hi,

Recently I've been watching videos on YT, and sometimes I will get onto Chrome, try to play a video, and it won't play. The video loads fine, my internet is good, but it's stuck on pause, even while it shows it should be playing. I can jump around in the video just fine, but it won't play. The only way to fix the problem is by restarting my computer, but I did that 2 days ago and it's already broken again.

Since the vague Google Help pages don't offer any solutions, I have to ask here.

I have tried:
-running in incognito mode
-restarting (works)
-refreshing
-playing a different video
-closing and re-opening Chrome​

Any questions you can PM when ever you want ill try to answer as fast as I can

I'm not going to download another browser if Chrome works fine for 99% of people. I've tried playing videos on Internet Explorer, but the loading is so slow that I can't tell if it's playing or not.

Yea, it is most likely a web browser problem, I suggest Chrome.
