I remembering clicking a message that prompts me to update a software already installed in my computer. But I can't remember which one it was. The usual mozilla start page opened up a blank page. Thereafter, all subsequent attempts got only a blank page. I re-intalled mozilla fox and the same problem came back.

hello chanwing, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)

in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode by pressing the shift key while the application is launching & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox menu ≡ > options > advanced > general (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).
