I can only use my browser on the main display.

When I use it on one of the extended displays, all areas outside the window related to the toolbars flickers when it tries to extend the drop down windows.

Hi,

Please try disabling (uncheck) Use hardware acceleration when available in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Advanced > General and restart Firefox. If the problem isn't isolated to Firefox, you may have to make adjustments in the OS graphics properties.

I have this feature off in every corner of my computer and never realized Firefox had its own setting for hardware acceleration.

Thank You.
