    Your ''Cache'' (Temp Internet Files), "Virtual Memory'' and/or "PageFiling'' may be full

    and, thus, causing a lag.  Simply delete your "Cache'' (plus "Cookies'' and "History"),

    then clear your Memory with a shutdown & reboot.  Afterwards, you will freak at how

    good and trouble-free your YouTube will be.

    Don't forget to totally shutdown+reboot afterwards.

    If you're really upset about that, I would recommend downloading torch browser and using the media button to download the video. It's a chromium browser, so it's essentially a better google chrome.

    Otherwise I have never experienced your particular problem and can only identify it as some type of buffering in which your internet is to blame
