firefox crashes on startup fresh install
Windows 7. IE and Chrome work fine. Firefox will not start even in safe mode. Fresh install. Firefox was never on this computer before. One of the crash reports:

Product Firefox Version 41.0.2
Release Channel release OS Windows NT OS Version 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1
The crash report flagged these programs;
Nvwgf2um.dll = NVIDIA Compatible D3D10 Driver = NVIDIA Corporation

check this:
- see if there are updates for your graphics drive drivers

I'n not sure those libraries you flagged have anything to do with this - it looks like they were highlighted in red only because the debugger symbol files (.pdb) files were not available for those modules.
The crash reason is EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION_EXEC. Looks like something may have tried to access address zero. The offending code is supposed to be when CallGetService was called. I'm not sure if this is a null pointer problem or how it could be caused by by my particular system configuration.
For what its worth I checked Dell and I supposedly have the latest nvidia drivers and I downloaded the latest intel integrated graphics drivers.
I can't get into firefox long enough to change any acceleration settings. The application crashes instantly. I barely start to see a window open up and its gone with the mozilla crash reporter popup.
For what its worth I went and installed an old firefox from May 2015. version 38.0 I think and that one runs. Not sure what is going on here.

Sounds like a likely culprit thanks for the info. If an update fixes this problem I'll be sure to click the solved the problem button for you. Might be some time before I can get IT to do anything.
