Win 7 RC and Firefox - Bluescreen

[vanka25]

I got some weird behavior when I did a clean install of Windows 7 RC and the latest version of Firefox. I had no problem browsing the internet, but when I tried to download a file (I tried different sources/files) - it would blue screen. This would happen only in Firefox - downloads in Internet Explorer would not cause a blue screen. Installing all available Windows Updates and the latest driver from Nvidia fixed the problem.

I had been running Windows 7 Beta on this computer before this and have not had the error.

Could you please report the BSOD error CODE?

I have RC & FF 3.0.10 on the laptop and the desktop, and am not experiencing any BSOD's at all...

Unfortunately I did not write it down and as I mentioned in my original post I have not experienced it since running Windows Update and installing the latest Nvidia drivers.

The purpose of the post was to see if someone else had experienced a similar problem.

Vanka25, no problem...

seeing that you already had fixed the problem, and you have my input, on getting BSOD's, I'll leave the stage gracefully to others... ;-)
