Hey guys I have been trying to find a good screen recorder to create youtube videos. I found camtasia, but everytime I run it once the video stops recording and switched to video playback my computer restarts. Does anyone have any idea why it is doing this?
 
I think MS Expression Encoder is great for screen recording and BTW it has a free version

Code:

That's weird! Are you sure you got no viruses or something?
Camtasia works fine for me & is what I always use.
 
A long time ago I used hypercam. I believe it still works well... and it's free.
 
CamStudio is really good and free.

Code:

HyperCam isn't exactly free, it leaves a watermark.

Camtasia is great for me, too.. It's fast, easy to use and has some nice features that let you enhance your videos easily. I use it on the homepage videos at http://www.blackcatservers.com Try uninstalling everything for the program and installing it again, maybe using a different file.

Plus you can just put in your YouTube credentials and you can fill out all the details for the video. Camtasia will upload the video to your account quickly. :)
 
yea i just cleaned out my whole computer with dban I think it may be that my ram is failing me but I dont know how to check. Thanks for your other suggestions I will try them out and see if I am getting the same problem.

Honestly I'm not sure. I swear it's called "YouTube Flash Player" or something like that.. Anyways, here's the files for it:
http://www.mediafire.com/?gois445k7ith0ga

Add this inside your <head>
Code:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="resources/style.css"><script type="text/javascript" src="resources/js/swfobject.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="resources/js/fixMouseWheel.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
	swfobject.embedSWF("youtubePlayer.swf", "showItem", "100%", "100%", "9.0.0","",{
		// flash vars
		"player.xml":"xml/example01.xml"
	},{
		// params
		bgcolor:"#000000",
		allowfullscreen:"true"
	});
</script>
<style>
	.mouseWheelFix {
	width: 480px;
	height: 290px;
	}
</style>

add this inside your <body>
Code:
<div class="mouseWheelFix">
<div id="showItem"></div></div>

And inside of "xml" directory, edit the example files for your video(s)..

Code:
<item id="UtQIMkuKpiU">
			<caption><![CDATA[
				  <title>BlackCat VPS Example</title>
				  <description>This video shows an example of our Expert VPS machines. <br/><a href="wp-login.php?action=register"><strong>Sign up here</strong></description>
			]]></caption>

(the "item id" comes from the YouTube URL: youtube.com/watch?v=UtQIMkuKpiU)
