system:
Win 7 home premium retail 64bit
Asus x79 deluxe
Intel Core i7-4930K
CORSAIR Dominator Platinum 16GB
ASUS EAH6450 Silent/DI/1GD3(LP) Radeon HD 6450
PSU CORSAIR| HX750 750W RT
WD Caviar black 1 TB drive

When I open either Firefox or Explorer browsers, my system becomes unstable the monitor shows wild out of control refresh rate and errors fizzing and blinking
Then the system crashed or I just shut it down

Any ideas? I suspect it's a driver for the video card, but I'm clueless.

thx

Try disabling Hardware Acceleration in Firefox settings.

I'll try that - - I think - - Problem is I gotta have firefox running to do that and running it crashes the system almost immediately

Right now I'm uninstalling and reinstalling the graphics driver software on the off chance that I got a buggy instal
