Details

My apologies, I cannot contribute any specifics, especially because Mozilla did not crash. However, I have never had this type of lockup _on system startup_ during the last 4 years of daily use on this computer before I enabled the Mozilla -turbo mode. 256Mb RAM in a AMD K6-2 300MHz, a slow machine by today's standards, a config where -turbo makes sense. Build ID: 2001090703 I would think there is an 80% chance that Mozilla caused this - I had removed alll other programs on startup, so there was absolutely nothing (not even a virus checker) except about 5 Windows explorer windows and the system monitor that showed an idle CPU.The symptom of the lockup is beeps on mouse movements and keyboard input - Ctrl+Alt+Del did not work, I had to turn power off.

Adding dp to cc: list. dp, this looks different from 88844, right? Since we're in Windows startup, we've got the -turbo flag and we're not hitting the xpcom init problems (or so I figure). Any ideas?
No ideas here. Can the user try it with a newer build ? Does this happen consistently ?
