Hi, is the GeForce 8800GT from year 2008 (driver 266.58) powerful enough to get the hw acceleration (gpu acceleration enabled on both Firefox and Flash player) to work good in Firefox 6 or 7, or my graphic card is not supported? Thanks a lot.

Thanks for your reply. Yes, my driver are resealsed in january 2011. they seem to be accepted by firefox (it recommends driver newer than june 2010 in the link you provided for firefox 4.0 and -I guess, above than 4.0-). If I have understood right, I will be allowed to upgrade from firefox 3.6.21 to 6 or 7 without issues. I will do this upgrade. thanks.
