XP computer crashes when Firefox is open, then blames nVidia, but no blue screen appears.
XP Service Pack 3, with all updates Firefox multiple versions, currently 15 nVidia 6200 with multiple versions of drivers Deep Scan using Vipre with current updates, found no viruses. Computer reboots unexpectedly, no blue screen, but on recovery, Windows reports there was a blue screen and nVidia caused it. However, without Firefox open, I've had no crashes. Sometimes Firefox can be open, but then crashes when one of several new tabs (sites) are opened, but cannot identify what site might be causing it.
