Check if you have a userContent.css file in your profile folder in the chrome folder.
(also in safe mode the userChrome.css and userContent.css files are ignored.)
thank you
nope no usercontent.css
Create a new firefox profile and check it in the new profile.
After that, if with the new profile firefox works great see : Recovering important data from an old profile
thanks again
infact no user......css of any kind
nope new profile is the same
I found on a forum, a person with the same problem, she said after uninstall the helvetica font (and related fonts) , she restarted the PC and the problem was solved.

Are you sure that hardware acceleration is disable ?

Try change on about:config this option:
layers.acceleration.force-enabled layers.acceleration.disabled
to value true.

changing config didnt help either :(
Any luck if you set gfx.content.azure.enabled to False, and gfx.direct2d.disabled to False also ? (always in about:config)
well its looking good at the moment so lets hope it stays that way so thanks to ideato for "set gfx.content.azure.enabled to False, and gfx.direct2d.disabled to False also ? (always in about:config) " which seems to have done the trick and thanks to toddy_victor also for his input :) :) :)
