Firefox is causing my computer to crash and reboot

Since version 7.0.1, I believe Firefox is causing my computer to suddenly reboot. After observing this behavior for at least a month (I think), the only thing running when it happened was Firefox. No crash ID is given; computer just reboots while I'm in the middle of doing something. Sigh

hello,

In addition to the above please check if hardware acceleration is enabled: Tools > Options > Advanced > General (3rd entry under 'Browsing'). If so, try unchecking it.

Unfortunately, Firefox is causing my computer to crash; not the other way around. So, it isn't reporting any crash. All I have is crashdump files if someone knows how to read them, I saved them after my computer rebooted. Doesn't look like I can attach the crashdump files tho; only images. It just happened again! UUUUGH

Oh, and I'm running Windows XP Pro, SP3
