Hi danimoore,

Depending opon your operating system, you should be able to adjust this setting in your Firefox Preferences.

You can find the options in your settings under "Tabs" that allow you to adjust these to your liking. I've attached a screenshot that displays what preferences you can change them to.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

  • Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
  • Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
