On Windows 7 you can use the Snipping tool to take a screenshot.


Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Is that the bookmarks menu from the Firefox button or the Bookmarks menu on the Menu bar or is that the bookmarks menu that opens if you click the Bookmarks Menu button on the Bookmarks toolbar or Navigation toolbar or something else?

Can you attach a screenshot?

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
