Last night, I just upgrade my PC RAM memory from 2gb to 4gb, with 2gb kingston pc5300 + 2gb AMC pc5300, since then my firefox crashes, and FYI other internet browser crashes too.

Are they correlated, memory upgrade & firefox crash?

Thx

It is possible that the two makes are not compatible with each other. You can try to swap the two banks or test with only the last modules that you added to see if that still causes crashes.
