Firefox crashes
Firefox will close down for no reason and give the option of a crash report that I always send. I have a long list of them now.
Games like Battlefield 4 are played via a browser so when it crashes, so does the game.
It just doesn't happen in game though.
This is a new PC of good spec and virus free.

Can you give me your crash reports?
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A Submitted Crash Reports list will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Report IDs that start with bp- and paste them into your response here.

Some of the reports look like a problem with hardware acceleration in Firefox.
You can try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
You need close and restart Firefox after toggling this setting.
Hi, Thanks for the support...
I tried the above and also replaced my RAM now running 16GB.
It has happened again with the most recent report as

Any thoughts please?
This was on your last crash report;

Sorry you've lost me....
The angry-birds-javascript which is highlighted. Is this the cause to the problem?
How do I proceed?
FredMcD Posting bug reports that can be found directly on the crash report won't do anything but raise more questions like above. It provides no information to the user since it's all technical and I doubt any normal user would be able to read crash reports.
be1fastchi1d It still looks like an issue with Hardware Acceleration, however HA is disabled. This is a long going bug with HA and wish Mozilla would fix it already. Most people I know (friends (technical)) disable HA because it crashes so often on them as well as on me.
A bit unconventional but have you tried using Firefox Beta? It's the pre-release version of Firefox but it's more stable than Nightly and Aurora. Personally, as well as a few other contributors here use multiple profiles for testing cases such as this and you might want to try it out.
I recommend the standard install which is downloading the EXE and installing it over Firefox 30. Hopefully you'll see better performance and less crashes. You can download it above.
Keep in mind NOT to click the checkbox marked "Remove my personal data and customizations" in the uninstaller of Firefox as it'll remove your Profile folder and destroy your Firefox install. Just uninstall (without removing personal data) and install Firefox 32 normally. Firefox Beta will pull up your settings from the previous Firefox.
Thanks for your reply and I will follow your advice cheers......watch this space.....
