Try to close all other web-based and file-sharing programs. Make sure the file format you're trying to upload is YouTube friendly (though I'm pretty certain you wouldn't be having an issue with that). Also, check the size of the video you're trying to upload. It might only be 10 minutes, but it could be a large file.

i use GOM converter. if you used Fraps, 1 min = 1 gig

So how/can u make the file smaller so i can put it on youtube?

find a converter so you can make the file a .mpeg or .avi file. go to http://converter.gomlab.com/eng/ to download it. only other option would be some kind of movie maker.

0: well usually once you've recorded something you put it through some editing software, to add music or w/e you choose.
That also bumps down the size of the video a lot.

When you record something with Hypercam or Fraps, it records in best possible quality, capturing everything exactly as it happens on your screen, hence the size.
