I've narrowed it down to FF 12. This never happens with any other software. The BSOD occurs only when in FF. It seems to be random it seems more prevalent when displaying a page with images, but today it happened while changing pages in a forum. I'm only back on FF because last week NVidia released a driver update, which is now installed.

I can sometimes get a whole hour in before the BSOD, often less. I'm currently running in FF "safe mode".

Have you tried disabling hardware acceleration in Firefox? You can do that from Options > Advanced > General.

Ok, I've cleared the HW acceleration box -- Thanks for the tip. I'll switch FF back to default browser, and run in normal mode to see what happens.

Seems to have worked for me ( at least for the moment!)
