Just to wrap this up, at least for the time being, the PC finally booted up on about the 8th try. I will look into the bootable DVD in case it happens again with the next update.

I just noticed that all of these pop-ups eventually end up in the "notifications" folder at the end of the toolbar. Might this be some sort of Chrome or Windows application?

Turns out I was incorrect about the Insignia. It is a 26" screen and the model number is NS-ldvd-26Q-10A. The Panasonic is a TH-42PXG0510. It is a plasma TV. Could this be the issue? Mediacom is...

Yes, the CD's play just fine without any browser open. The only problem is when I have Firefox open. Anyway, I appreciate all the responses. I just wondered if this was a known issue, or if I was...

I don't use the browser to listen to music. I use it to access the internet while I'm listening to my CD's. I had zero problems until I switched from Chrome to Firefox. I guess I could just switch...

I just open the browser and put a CD in. It usually automatically starts with WMP. When I switched to Firefox, the procedure is exactly the same, but as the CD plays, the volume fluctuates and at...

I didn't install it intentionally. As I stated, I use VLC as my media player. Thanks for the help once again, MidKnyte.

It's a Samsung QX410-S02 with an Intel i5 processor. It had Windows 7 as the OS when I purchased it, but I upgraded to Windows 10 a year ago.
