Firefox 4 appears to be messing up my graphic card

Usually when my GC have outdated drivers, it crashes while playing a game and turns off my pc without notice. Recently it did just that, but my drivers are updated. So I started go to back to restoration points and the behavior dissapered after restoring a point before firefox 4. Then reinstalled firefox 4 and the behaviour came back, went back to the restoration point and disappeared. This behaviour appeared even without opening firefox 4, just by having it installed. Anyone has had a similar problem or know a solution to this?

I am having issues with FireFox:4 and my Radeon HD 6xxx graphics card ( This card is New ) I have tried 2 already and they both do they same thing ! " Driver failed to load " I have also seen odd pixels flashing in Firefox or times in a game ! I uninstalled Firefox:4 and the problems went away
