Firefox 29 Stalls Upon Launch
Using Windows 8.1.1 64bit. Upon opening Firefox 29, a solid white screen appears, and the mouse turns into the "loading animation." This takes about 10 seconds to clear up, and the browser to open. I have been using Firefox for years, and have never had this problem. 29 has been great, with a few UI tweaks, until this started.

Did you try to disable hardware acceleration?

Can you try to start Firefox in Safe Mode to see if Firefox works properly with no error? You can start Firefox in Safe Mode below:
- Windows/Mac: Go to Help > Restart with add-ons disabled
- Linux: Run firefox -safe-mode in the Terminal/Konsole
If Firefox opens up fine with no problems, it's probably one of your extensions that's causing the issue. You can re-enable your add-ons one by one until you find the one that causes the issue upon being re-enabled.
Thank you for the speedy reply, I tried safe mode, and then disabled my add ons one, and no luck.
Correction...ad ons one by one.

cor-el: Thank you so much for the help, this 100% solved my problem. I have tried disabling hardware acceleration on past versions for various reasons, but it never occurred to me to try it for this issue. Much appreciated advice!
