Whenever my ff30 stops (as in I leave it for a while and it's still running) or I shut it down, the volume in Win 7 resets Flash to zero.

I have the latest versions of both Flash and Firefox.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode; Press the <Alt> or <F10> key to bring up the tool bar. Followed by;

Windows; Tools > Options Linux; Edit > Preferences Mac; application name > Preferences

Then Advanced > General. Look for and turn off Use Hardware Acceleration.

Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

My hardware acceleration was already off.

Does the problem continue in Safe mode?

Yes it was.

I'm actually thinking I might have registry problems in Windows and this is symptomatic.

Try running a registry scan.
