Frequent random crashes. Crashes in the middle of the night and the computer shuts down and went I restart it, it goes to the safe mode screen.

I assume you mean the computer starts in Safe Mode?

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.

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

Using your mouse, mark the most resent 7 - 10 crash reports, and copy them. Now go to the reply box below and paste them in.

(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)

Tonight when you go to bed; Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web Link} by holding down the <Shift>
(Mac=Options)
key, and then starting Firefox. A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh).

Is the problem still there?

Fred:

It said there were corrupted files, but that it could not fix them.

Windows will not update; it gave code 80248014.

I updated the graphics NVIDIA driver last week.

Thanks,
