Thanks for the tip, but I had already done that. I also upgraded the driver for my graphical card. On my Apple Macbook Air FF renders fine, but on my Windows 7, 32-bit, HP Pavilion Slimline is its slim pickings..

Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Windows Accessibility settings.

Thanks. In the end the problem was in Windows 7 because I had a classic Windows theme and not a Windows 7 theme.......Go figure, but that was the rotten apple in the fruit cart. It works fine now, phew.
