I've checked a lot of forums and always everyone are suggesting options which I've made earlier and it didn't work... :(

Are you up-to-date with MicroSoft drivers or Lenovo drivers?

Yes, all drivers are up to date. Problem still persists and it is impossible to comfortable surf.

Sorry Mozilla but if you're reading it - fix your browser

Are you up-to-date with MicroSoft drivers or Lenovo drivers? Which? I though I saw a post where you should be updated with Lenovo and not MicroSoft drivers.

What kind of drivers exactly?

Opera and Chrome works like a charm, so it has to be a problem with Firefox compability

Please dig-in harder and do some research on Lenovo's Screen Flickering. I can only devote so much time with FF issues, let alone on specific, detailed computer issues. (Wink)

It has yet to be determined it's a FF browser cause. Everywhere I look points back to a Lenovo cause with either the Drivers and/or the BIOS. With my brief searching, it is a wide-known problem with these Lenovos: A Driver and/or BIOS problem. Result: Screen Flicker/Blinking/Etc.

I know it appears it's a FF problem to you, while other browsers are 'working' for you, and up-front it appears to be a FF issue, but from what I can tell, the real problem is with the Drivers and/or BIOS.

I'll post these 3 links, from 3 different sites, 1 being from Lenovo Support:

A) Drivers and BIOS Article.

B) Lenovo Yoga Support.

C) DriverEasy.Com Site.

Hope you get it fixed.

(If by chance it's found to be FF problem, I'll be surprised.)

Hello again nomad89,

Giving it one more shot :

You said that you've disabled hardware acceleration, which didn't make a difference - would you (just to make sure) try again ?
