The autocomplete window that appears when clicking on a field is now distorted, leaving the text unreadable. Sometimes the field will suddenly switch to normal text, whereas usually I am unable to read anything in available options. This does not affect text in the field, only in the autocomplete list that appears upon clicking the field.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

To Enable SafeMode

  • You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the Shift key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  • Or open the Help menu and click on the Restart with Add-ons Disabled... menu item while Firefox is running.
  • Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"

If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Thank you for your help! I turned off hardware acceleration and that seems to have fixed it, though I don't know if that's only a temporary fix (I'm not sure if I'm missing out on anything without it enabled).
