HI, what is telling you to update ? You can update by going to Help --> About

If you are downloading from any where other than mozilla.org or firefox.com stop.

Try from here full version installer, can uninstall without loosing anything or install over top :

If can not download check that can download in IE and also download : https://www.malwarebytes.com/ and give self a scan.

Noticed your drivers, not sure if is age of card, but see if there is something newer than May 2015. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/detect.html
