Today FF is black inside of the Window. No tool bar no nothing but the top right had 3 items as usual with that any windows
window has. Since FF is my default when I open Facebook with my special icon using FF Facebook inside the window is black also, I can get to FB with IE or Gooogle. I made Google my default browser & now when you open FF it is still black but in the center I have a window with the words "Default Browser" inside the box, there is an X in the upper right to close that box. No doubt trying to tell me it isn't the Default browser anymore. Never had this one B/4, has anyone else.
FF no data in window.

Re: FF no data in window.

Re: FF no data in window.
If this happens again, my guess would be it's caused by hardware acceleration. If it does happen again, restart in safe mode to see, and if things work right, go to Options -> General, Performance. Uncheck "Use recommended performance settings" and then uncheck "Use hardware acceleration when available", which will show up when you uncheck the recommended performance checkbox. Close and restart Firefox normally. Some people report they must restart the computer to have hardware acceleration in Firefox turn off.
