Scrolling with mouse on pages create black and white lines,
When scrolling with mouse, periodically the whole screen turns into black and white lines. Sometimes whole page, sometimes just pictures/side ads. If you continue to scroll it does go away but then you need to scroll back to where the lines started, its hard to explain, i have taken 1 photo of the problem but will take more photos as i can, i really enjoy how Firefox runs on my computer, it has always been the best browser for my needs. I did recently buy a new desktop, but it did it then also, so i removed it and tried running explorer and Google and i just don't like them, so i am hoping we can get this fixed.

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox.
- Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"

If there is a problem with scrolling on web pages then try to disable smooth scrolling.

I did both of those and i still have the problem. this is what happened just after i changed those settings..
Try to boot the computer in Windows Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.
