Firefox users

Fresh install seems to have fixed it, no idea what cause this though.. really strange. Previously tried clearing cookies/reseting firefox to defaults but that didn't help.
 
Still no problems here. :p

Unless you're running a vanilla install of FF without any add-ons/extensions/plugins, try restarting in safe mode (Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled), and if it's still crashing, perhaps try disabling hardware acceleration (in Options > Advanced > General > Browsing).

It seems that disabling hardware acceleration fixes it (tried before your post :D)

Could you check if your hardware accel is enabled or disabled?

Going to update my gpu drivers to see if that will solve it.
 
Have an AMD card so no use ! Updated from catalyst 13.4 whql to 13.5 beta but no difference.

It only happens on that specific camera review and on firefox which is really weird. Tried about 10 other random reviews and the pictures all load fine with hardware acceleration enabled.
 
Hmm, well, that is weird then.

I had a quick look at some of the other reviews - I didn't see image 28, the purply-blue flowers (not a keen gardener) anywhere else, so maybe it's just one or two specific images causing the problem.

Unless it keeps happening elsewhere, if I were you I'd just put it down to one of life's unsolved mysteries, heave a philosophical sigh and move on. :)

Happens on every picture I tried on that review not just the flowers. It starts loading for about 2 seconds then crash.

Was planning on getting that camera as well.. maybe its a sign :P

Only tried the first image but after loading half the image it crashed for me on FF 21. Using hardware acceleration and 13.2 beta 4 (or something like that) drivers.

I noticed this happened before with a huge picture, so I'm guessing specific massive pictures just makes FF crash.

Out of curiousity, is anyone else with the crashing problem using an AMD GPU?

me :)

7770. Tried 13.4 and 13.5 beta drivers.
