firefox with black and white stripes

I'm having problems with Mozilla Firefox 12 and Windows 7 in a particular laptop. The problem is that the Firefox window appears with a black and white stripes pattern. When I disable all the addons (using the option in the Help menu) it works fine, but then I try disabling each one of the addons individually (or all together), it does not work.

Any idea?

Thanks

try to update your graphics driver from here http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload.../radeonmob_win7-32.aspx or the support section of your laptop's manufacturer.

if this won't help, disable hardware acceleration in firefox under options > advanced > general
