Did you try changing Use recommended performance settings in firefox settings?
Untick Use recommended performance setting > then Untick Use hardware acceleration when available

Hi there...
just try those things i think you will fix and you can stop firefox crashes.
Update Firefox Clear Firefox cache Update your drivers Disable Firefox add-ons Update Windows Check for viruses Reinstall Firefox
Started last April-May.. Running Win7-32 bit on an Asus B250M MB.. 16 gb RAM, I3 Intel CPU. OS does not crash, no BSOD. Using EVO-850 250 gb SSDs.. Installed Win7 clean, installed my AV ( Zone Alarm ES), installed FF bare.. still crashing.. used a new SSD to do this on... created a clone on a second new SSD and uninstalled the AV.. still crashed.. definitely video related.. seems to happen when a page loads or changes.. not website specific.. could a MB problem cause this ? Still have IE11 loaded but not used. Running three other systems, all Win7, 32 bit, same AV, same FF version... different MBs, though.. does not happen with them.
- Enter about:crashes in the Firefox address bar and press Enter. A list of Submitted/Unsubmitted Crash Reports will appear, similar to the one shown below.
- Copy the 5 most recent Submitted Report IDs that start with bp- and then go back to your forum question and paste those IDs into the "Post a Reply" box.
Note: If a recent Report ID does not start with bp- click on it to submit the report.
(Please don't take a screenshot of your crashes, just copy and paste the IDs. The below image is just an example of what your Firefox screen should look like.)
Thank you for your help!

Looks like the hardware acceleration was the issue.. had tried performance settings , which didn't resolve the issue.. been two full days without crashing : based on past performance, this is excellent Thanks much.
