(48b1) Actual results: The driver of my Graphics card crashes several times while using the current beta version. The screen goes black for a short while and Windows gives me a message that the Driver crashed and was restarted. I use an AMD Radeon HD 7450 and the driver is up to date (15.201.1151.1008-151104a-296217E).

Why do you think that Firefox triggers this crash, and that there is a problem with Firefox code?
It happened several times while using it. I doesn't happen while using Chrome, Vivaldi and the current Final.
Hi reporter, If your browser crashes you should see in about:crashes a crash ID, please provide that crash ID, and also can you figured out some steps to try to reproduce this issue. Thanks.

Firefox doesn't crash, it's the Graphics card driver. It crashed WHILE USING Firefox. But I'm gonna give it a try again.
Looks fine at the moment. I've installed the current beta again and no crash since I use it. I don't know what's different now but everything works like it should.
Based on Merowinger comment 5 I will close this as Resolved WORKSFORME. If anyone can still reproduce it, feel free to reopen the issue and provide more information.
