Why is youtube lagging on my laptop?

[Nac Hsart]

Hello. So a couple months ago I got a XIDU laptop on Amazon. It's a 2 in 1 and a touchscreen, it works perfectly fine for everything except youtube. I don't wanna quit youtube and I've been trying to find solutions for it for a while but nothing seems to work. Watching a 5 minute video tends to take 15 minutes or more, depending on how lucky you get it could take 10 minutes. Help?

Can you stream video, as expected, from any other source?

Yeah, I went to lots of other sites where they have videos are stuff. They all work fine, Vimeo, Dailymotion, etc. All good, only youtube isn't working

Does this problem only happen with your laptop?

Does the behavior change if connected to a different network?

Yeah, it only happens with my laptop. I tried all different kinds of internet connections and the result was the same. I even used one out of state and it's the same, so I'm like 99.9 percent sure its my laptop cause youtube works on other deivces

What browser are you using? Does this happen with all browsers?
