Have you ever tried disabling Firefox's use of hardware acceleration? Among the first five linked reports in your question, #1, #3, #4, and #5 appear to be related to graphics. Disabling Firefox from using hardware acceleration works around incompatibilities with your graphics card driver software.

orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced

On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"

This will take effect after you restart Firefox.

Hi, I did that, it seems it crashes again.

Hi painfulcrash2007, the first five links in your post each gives a different crash signature, so it's difficult to recognize the pattern here.

You might already have tried this, but if you run for a day or two in Firefox's Safe Mode, is that less crashy?

You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using

Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled

Or, if Firefox is not running, hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox

In the small dialog that appears, click "Start in Safe Mode" (not Reset)

The main effect for someone with no extensions and having already disabled hardware acceleration will be that the JavaScript compilers are disabled in Safe Mode. This may slow performance on sites that use a lot of scripts.

Any difference in stability?

more options

I have tried safe mode and have add-ons disabled. It was not helpful.

You can try to disable the JIT compiler as a test. Note that this will down down Firefox on websites that use JavaScript heavily.

Try to disable the ionmonkey JIT compiler by setting these jit prefs to false on the about:config page (Search: jit) to see if that helps.

javascript.options.baselinejit.chrome
javascript.options.baselinejit.content

See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firefox_crashes#Extensions

You can open the about:config page via the location bar like you open a website.

hello, due to the wide range of error signatures, i would speculate that your hardware might be involved in the issue. can you test the integrity of your RAM with a tool like www.memtest.org?

more options

Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder before (re)installing a fresh copy of the current Firefox release.

Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

if possible uninstall your current Firefox version to cleanup the Windows registry and settings in security software.

  • Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you lose personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.

Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.

  • (32 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\"
  • (64 bit Windows) "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\"

Your bookmarks and other personal data are stored in the Firefox profile folder and won't be affected by an uninstall and (re)install, but make sure that "remove personal data" is NOT selected when you uninstall Firefox.

If you keep having problems then also create a new profile.
