Hi,

You may have to uncheck the compatibility mode option by going into the properties of the Firefox link or the firefox.exe in the Mozilla Firefox installation folder.

On rare occasions you may also have to restart the PC. If the problem persists please try disabling Use hardware acceleration when available under Tools (or Alt + T) > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing.

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
