User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0 Build ID: 20140922030204 Steps to reproduce: Go ahead: open like 15 photostreams in flickr and buffer 5 videos until you saturate the VRAM and then #WaitForIt :P Actual results: BSOD (video_scheduler_internal_error) Expected results: I should have stayed alive :)

Component: Untriaged → Graphics
Product: Firefox → Core
This would be a GFX driver issue, filling vram will result in content spilling out into the shared system memory, or a user mode crash of the process. Not a bsod or driver reset.
Severity: normal → S3
