Is there any incompatibility between Pentium HT processors and Firefox? Firefox always freezes in my computer.

I've got a P4 ht computer, and I'm running firefox just fine. Is everything up to date? Or, better yet, untilstall Firefox completely, go to mozilla.com, download firefox again, reinstall and try it fresh without extentsions.

I'm afraid you are going to have to pony up the bucks and have it looked at.  Most programs do NOT clean up a freezing problem.  You could have a virus, a bad motherboard, or an old system that has just given up.  Some places can take care of it for less than $100.\n\nGood luck.

Reasons:\n- Slow clock CPU speed\n- Need more RAM\n- Lots of processes running in the background\n- Try Fire Fox 2

it may not have anything to do with it being a pentium 4, it mostly has to do with hard drive space & your video/graphics card. You can call the Geek Squad at Best Buy & ask them, they can help.

First I would check and make sure you computer meets the requirements for Firefox (if you bought it within the last few years it should be fine). Then I would upgrade to the newest version of Firefox (1.5). If that still fails, unistall it completey and re-install. Check your other programs and see if there are any compatibility problems.

Yes, I have Intel Pentium 4 w/hyperthreading & software that lets you choose programs to exclusively use, and option to turn on at startup. I have had no problems.

I am currently putting my new system together.  I settled on the AMD64 X2 because I could take advantage of a dual core processor ( I use linux exlusively). I haven't looked at the pentium D so I could not comment or make a comparison.  I have built a few AMD's and a few pentium 4's .  I find the AMD 64's  more responsive and a better bang for the buck.

i'd say that there shouldn't be a problem. but, for support reasons, i would use a newer version. personally, i use xubuntu on older machines.

Your processor could have Hyperthreading enabled, which treats one processor as two, and helps speed up multitasking.\n\n\nps) What processor do you have?  Mine only shows one graph, and I know I don't have hyperthreading.  Is it a newer intel processor?

Firefox! IE was not originally intended for the internet. It was intended as a mainframe for ur comp. Thats why if ur IE crashes ur whole comp does too.

1) check for ventilation problems; CPUs (the core of your PC system) tend to get a lot of heat.\n2) if you have recently added new hardware (supposing you use Windows) go to "My PC(Right Mouse Click)Properties|Hardware|Device Manager", look for the new device, select its properties (again right button click, then Properties) and Disable it (there's a button just for that).\n\nIf those didn't work, then repost your question but explain you have checked for CPU temperature and new devices.\n\nHave a nice day without computer hangs!

I highly endorse what Scott and Daniel said, but also like Goswin said, if you can muster up some geek courage you might also try a different operating system.  Try a Linux varient, several of them are really easy to install, load desktop environments by default and have decent compatibility with the hardware you're probably running.  And they don't bog down your computer.  Ubuntu and Red Hat both come to mind.
