Not clear on what to do. None of my crash reports start with bp. Am I supposed to open them? I can't copy links.

Hi jamof, thank you for the reports.

The first report is related to an Intel graphics file, perhaps related to video acceleration. Since there is only one of these, I don't know whether it is part of the pattern or just a rare one-off.

The next six reports are Out-of-Memory errors, nearly all of which occurred within the first minute after startup. Perhaps Firefox was restoring a lot of tabs?

What's odd to me about these reports is how tiny the "Available Page File" space is relative to the "Available Physical Memory", for example, 4-6MB vs. 4GB. Page file space usually is much larger than physical memory, not much smaller. ?????

The next two reports after that were also Out-of-Memory errors but they occurred after a sustained period of browsing. These also exhibit the very low page file space issue.
