My screen has gone fuzzy again, its like there is shadows behind the text, why does it do that, and how do I stop it doing that?

Thanks.

Sorry, this is probably a problem with your computer screen or with Windows, not a problem with the Firefox web browser. Please contact your computer manufacturer for support, or a local computer service.

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

In Firefox 4 and later Safe mode disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.

  • Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

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