Try to reset some preferences to the default with the SearchReset extension:

Start Firefox in Safe 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).

If you do not keep changes after a restart then see:

If you want a blank tab, enter about:config into the address bar, hit the return key on the keyboard, and change this setting:

browser.newtab.url - change to about:blank
