Start Firefox in Safe Mode
While you are in safe mode;
Firefox Options > Advanced > General.
Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.
While you are in safe mode, bounce around a few SAFE web sites to see if
there is still a problem. Then restart.
Thank you for the links.
Three of your crashes occurred within 30 seconds of starting Firefox, and one after less than 3 minutes. Is that the general pattern: a couple bad starts and then Firefox is okay, or does it also crash during general use?
For startup crashes, the article "Troubleshoot Firefox crashes (closing or quitting unexpectedly)" recommends:
- If Firefox crashes frequently or crashes when starting, see Uninstall BitGuard to fix crashes with Firefox.
- If Firefox crashes on startup and BitGuard software is not installed, check to see if the crash happens in safe mode.
When Firefox not running, you can start it up in its Safe Mode by holding down the shift key when double-clicking the shortcut.
A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset).
Any difference in stability? Note: because Safe Mode disables extensions, you may find it difficult to use Firefox for more than a few hours in Safe Mode. However, the test results still may be useful.
