Don't know since when, my firefox seems to be having problem.

Usually when key in password, it will be hidden & black dots will be seen. However, suddenly the black dots just disappear. When entering the password, there's nothing in the text box even when you typed in the password. They do register the password, but the black dots can't be seen.

Uninstalled & Reinstall a few times but nothing helps.. :(

Anyone know what's the issue?? Please help me..

Do you see anything if you try to select the text in the password field?

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).

Hi,

Nothing is shown. Seems to be invisible. You can see the text cursor moving while typing password.

Try a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).

You can use this extension to see which fonts are used for selected text.
