You can check for problems with current Flash plugin versions and try these:

  • disable a possible RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin extension for Firefox and update the RealPlayer if installed
  • disable protected mode in the Flash plugin (Flash 11.3+ on Windows Vista and later)
  • disable hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

For some reason I also had 2 Adobe Flash installations, both the same. I uninstalled one and hope that this fixes the occasional crashes which have been occurring.

Hi laserfranki

You could have a memory problem as the crash reports indicate that almost all system memory is used.

System Memory Use Percentage: 91/81

Try to increase the page file size to at least 4 GB and possibly install another 2 GB memory.

No one's helping me!

You keep rejecting the help that is offered, regarding trying the Windows SafeMode; and by not following cor-el suggestions regarding Flash or at least providing feedback about what you have tried regarding his Flash suggestions.

I don't know how to do what cor-el said!

increase both values by 1.4 times of what they were, that didnt give the info i was looking for, but this should work.

more options

What do you mean by 1.4?

more options

Whatever those two boxes say multiply it by 1.4 each. Or just set Max to 4000 and initial to 3750.

Hi, it doesn't seem to be crashing now but it's turned as slow AS ANYTHING. Is this because of changing the settings?

Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.

You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).

Then perform these steps:

  • Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
  • In the Firefox options window click the Advanced tab, then select "General".
  • In the settings list, you should find the Use hardware acceleration when available checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
  • Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
