Firefox has unwanted graphical artifacts on Windows 8, nVidia 8200GS
I have installed Firefox 10 and 11 in Windows 8 consumer preview.
It randomly presents unwanted artifacts especially on the tabs. E.g. when i right click on a tab, it may get the color of the firefox button (orange). If I click on sth in a page, some tab gets the color of the element I clicked. Other times, just maximizing and minimizing the window gets tabs colors mixed.
My graphics card is nVidia geforce 8200 GS

Question owner
I already did that and it fixed the problem. Is there a way to enable hardware acceleration only for the webpages and not the UI?
