I'm using Firefox 11 on Windows 7 Enterprise. I have disabled all add-ons and extensions. But still can't read the menu drop-downs. They flash as I move the mouse down the list. I can see the menu items only for 1/2 a second when I move the mouse.

Hi luvdragons,

I know you said you disabled your add-ons, but have you actually tried starting Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode? You should look at the Extensions and Themes troubleshooting guide and the Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems if everything works in Safe Mode.

You could also try creating a new profile.

Hopefully this helps!

Try to disable hardware acceleration.

If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
