Firefox crashes on start. Profile manager also crashes. Already reset.
Firefox crashes before it even fully starts. I tried to do the profile manager trick but profile manager crashes, too. I started in safe mode and did the reset Firefox thing, that didn't help.
I deleted the cache while in safe mode.
I even uninstalled and reinstalled, twice. I tried all the options in the safe mode dialog (disable addons, Reset Toolbars, etc).

If you disable Hardware Acceleration, does Firefox start normally? Turning off hardware acceleration?
Also, can you give some crash id's? type about:crashes into your address bar, and copy and paste the numbers there (they start with bp-)
I didn't enter crash ID's cause there aren't any. :( Last crash ID was from early July before I started having this problem.
Oh, you've got to be kidding me. The hardware acceleration thing worked.
OH NO! Exactly what I hoped wouldn't happen happened. :( I lost all my RSS feeds.
Oh carp. Pardon my rudeness.
Much thanks! Thank you for that tip.
