Hey everyone. This one has me truly stumped.
It started when I upgraded to FF 3.5. I would be in the middle of surfing and my PC would just shut off. No blue screen, nothing. Just shut off and restart.
First, I thought it was a hardware issue. Maybe overheating. After monitoring it for a bit, that didn't seem to be the case.
I also couldn't duplicate it with any other browser...IE, Opera, Safari, none of them would do it.
Then I got to thinking that maybe the newest FF was the issue, so I uninstalled it and went to version 3.0. Same thing. Just randomly shut the PC off.
Yesterday I went to version 2.0, and immediately after install, just moved the mouse cursor to the FF quick launch icon and bam, shut down.
I've had the PC on now since yesterday with Opera as the browser and no issue at all.
I really like FF, but at this point it's unusable to me. Anyone have any idea as to what's going on or why?
I'm running XP with 2 GB of ram on a P4 2.6 Ghz processor.
Thanks in advance,
Kaveman
