Font problems after upgrade 38.1.0

Hello,

After last upgrade to versión 38.1.0. fonts look like blured. If you pass the mouse over some test, select it or scroll the windows, the text gets ok. But after some second, or I don't know why, the text gets blured again.

It happens in all places on thunderbird.

I'm using windows 7 64bit. I have updated the graphic driver and Windows.

Atached you will find some screenshots.

Thanks,

Your screen shots are missing. Can you post them?

Then try disabling HWA at Tools | Options | Advanced | General | uncheck Use hardware acceleration.

Please tell us, does this improve the rendering?

Yes, disabling hardware acceleration now it works. The ploblem is solved.

By the way. There is no screenshot because the "image uploader" didn't work for me. Now it seem it's working.
