    I'm mostly at fault for having opened many Tabs to read later, and opening several Firefox windows with many Tabs.


    Try disabling hardware acceleration in FF.

    I had crashes on my modest XP pc with the newer FF rollouts. In my case, the screen would just go blank. It had nothing to do with the number of tabs. The
    problem would occur on some animated-busy websites.

    Since I disabled hardware acceleration, FF has not failed.
