Firefox crashing semi constantly

I recently bought a new laptop and seem to have Firefox constantly crashing in both normal and troubleshoot mode on both a Windows 11 OS as well as Linux OS's (Pop_OS and Manjaro). In general it will crash every 30 minutes or so but sometimes it can happen rapidly in a row.

I'm not sure what the problem could be but it sounds like a hardware problem? However I don't seem to be experiencing crashes on Edge or Opera when I tried them but I haven't tested it for too long yet. Does anyone have any advice or insight about this?

Here are some recent report ID's:

Looks like there is a problem with the Graphic driver that mighty be related although the crashing looks different, but still looks graphics related.

GraphicsCriticalError:
[0][GFX1-]: glxtest: VA-API test failed: failed to initialise VAAPI connection. (t=0.280054)

You can try Firefox from the official Mozilla server if you currently use a version from the repositories of your Linux distribution to see if it behaves differently.
