Firefox crashes when I open Netflix or Amazon Prime Video

I have an older PC but it was working fine with Netflix and Prime Video until this latest update (v89.0). It seems that when I try to go to Netflix or Amazon Prime Video the browser crashes almost instantly, and usually shuts my whole computer off. It doesn't go to a blue screen, the computer just decides it's time to reboot. Now again, I'm using an older machine (and I can't afford a new one), but this was never a problem until this latest version of Firefox.

I am also not a fan of the aesthetics in this version and I'm wondering if I can revert back to an older version where the crashing was less frequent. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you very much for your reply. Interestingly, there are no crash reports from 2021, or 2020. There was one crash report in 2019 and the rest are from 2018 and below. What appears to be happening is that when I load Netflix or Prime Video, (or even YouTube I forgot to mention), it's the system that crashes not specifically the browser. The browser attempts to load the site -- which takes up more resources than my dying computer can handle -- and shuts off. It's not really a browser issue so much as a hardware issue.

This computer is 13+ years old and certain components are starting to fail. I think it's just time I buy a new PC, sadly. I'm just broke so I'm not sure how I'm going to do that.

Thanks again for your help.

The crash report is several pages of data. We need the report numbers to see the whole report.

If the problem goes away with the computer in Safe Mode, the problem is with one of the other programs on the system.

As a test, disable your protection programs.
