User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050225 Firefox/1.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050225 Firefox/1.0.1

Computer locks up, cannot use keyboard or mouse, happens on various web pages. I
have the updated driver for my video adapter, only happens when running firefox.
I don't think the web page I go to makes any difference because it happens on a
variety of sites. I am running an IBM A22e laptop with 384Mb of ram with Windows
XP. Occurs at random cannot reproduce happen about 20 times in the last four months.

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce




s3gsavmx.dll has been put into a infinite loop

Reporter, that looks like it's related to your video card (Firefox can't crash
your OS like this). Do you have the latest version of the driver ?

A Blue Screen is always the fault of a driver or hardware.

-> invalid
