Using Firefox my right click menu disappears in a flash.

by nasacouk - 8/27/07 7:48 AM

It happens especially when I am using the right click (copy ans paste) command in my firefox browser. only have dap application open as well.
Although there are several tabs open when browsing: fileflyer, email, search engines etc. Any points to clean up this problem?

This solution worked for me (Dell E6320 laptop running Firefox 5 on Windows 7 Pro) immediately:
Go to Options > Advanced > General and uncheck the "Use hardware acceleration when available"

I found it here: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/764278#question-reply

It's a pity that you might be slowing the rendering somewhat, but the tradeoff is well-worth it...

I signed up just to reply to let you know disabling this option solved it for me. Thanks for the advice.

Firefox 10.0.1
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT
