How can I get my computer to play videos without skipping?

Whenever I watch videos on youtube or try to watch a movie online, instead of it looking like a video or movie, it looks like a slide show, it’s not showing everything…it skips. Like if someone is talking, you don’t see their mouth move, you just see expressions on their face change every few seconds.

Make it colder. It could be heating up. my friend would hook up a tube he could put dry ice in and the speed would skyrocket.
