win 7 x64 nightly 42.0a1 Will not start in normal or safe mode after update. Tried -safe-mode and shift key method.

Last crash ID Crash ID: bp-2bd17147-3a07-458b-9c89-4a37e2150718 This means nothing to me.

I can't put up with these crashes any more. I've worked on it for over 2 hours today.

Please, someone help quickly.

hi rob86, nightly is an early pre-release version where instabilities are to be expected. if you want to have a more stable environment, please use a different channel: https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/channel/#firefox

Are you using the 64 bit version or the 32 bit version?

Maybe try the 32 bit version.
