Firefox and Vista not getting along

[bombora11]

Hi everyone,

I have a laptop that came with Vista and about 2 months ago everytime i run firefox, the whole pc seizes up and I have to re-boot. Is there any know issue i have not heard about? I can run explorer as my browser but it is not preferred browser.

cheers

I think Vista causes every application to lock up, it was a design feature

You can try turning off hardware acceleration in Firefox, but the issue is so nebulous that it could be difficult to pinpoint if that's not the cause.
