When ever i want to watch my favourite or ANY Youtube Video, my pc freezes and it sorta lags the video so the video audio is still playing alright but the video image it self is not moving it just stays the same i have to wait a few seconds till the video plays again..

Is there anyway of making Youtube video's play better by somehow boosting its performance without purchasing chips or any additional add-ons besides any software or tweaks. My operating system is Windows Xp so im sure there must be a way to solve watching videos on a old pc.

My pc is 699mhz with 640mb of ram, unfortunately my graphic card is 8mb At the moment! but will be getting it updated.

Right there's your problem. Youtube (well any flash based site) is very processor intensive. Until you get a faster processor, you'll probably have to deal with the lags. I know this netbook I just got really struggles with some flash-based video players.
