Ok, i have this strange problem. Just bought brand new Sapphire HD6870 Toxic and as far as the card goes it's great, a bit noisy but great. The thing is that i'm getting these CSOD's whenever i stop playing a game (mostly NFS Hot Pursuit or Killing Floor) and fire up Firefox 4.0.1. At this point in 95% of cases i get CSOD. CSOD is a screen entirely panted in an average color of the page that was opened at that time (but not necessarely the first one, sometimes i start browisng for few seconds and bam, CSOD. If the page was white, entire screen will be in white. If the page had plenty of blue content, the screen paints in sort of shade of blue. And so on and on for other colors.
When this happens all i can do is reset the system as i can't see any windows, Ctrl+Alt+Del doesn't do anything. It seems that i have pinpointed the reason. It's Firefox 4 Hardware acceleration. I have disabled it in Firefox settings and so far no CSOD's. So it must be related to this somehow.
Sapphire HD6870 Toxic
Catalyst 11.5 WHQL (MLAA and 16x AF enabled at all times, everything else to default)
Windows Vista 64bit
Mozilla Firefox 4.0.1
Anyone else experiencing the same thing with their Radeon or is this limited to just my system or HD6870 Toxic from Sapphire? Could be just a driver bug or a bug in Firefox or a bug with my gfx card power management where it should kick in 3D mode and deliver more power, but because it doesn't, it just craps out. Donno, just my thoughts.
