      Does it say anything, or is it just a black box by itself?

              Have you tried other browsers? What happens with IE, Opera, Safari?

                If flash player is installed on all browsers, try clearing the cache (in each browser) and rebooting. That's the only thing I can think of.

                Try Mozilla Firefox (Safe Mode), or any browser with no addons.

                  I think you can contact the Youtube support for this issue. I have a similar problem before and contact with the support, they solve the problem.
