Can't read address bar/tab title/etc. -- black bar issue on Ff4
Please help! I am using the latest Firefox 4.0 (it says it is up-to-date) as of 3/22/11. This particular machine has an nVidia Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI card (nVidia control panel reports version 258.96). I am running Windows 7 (no SP). I can't read the address bar or tab names or the search bar, etc. because they are covered by a black bar. Other text is also unreadable.
Is there any fix for this issue? Thanks for any help you can provide. I would love to enjoy the new Firefox!

Update the video display driver to the latest version.
Disable hardware acceleration in Firefox 4.0:
- Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: [ ] "Use hardware acceleration when available"
Thanks for the suggestion -- I have upgraded to the latest drivers (267.66) but this has not resolved the issue. :( I can turn off hardware acceleration but that was one of the things holding me back from using Firefox over IE9 (or Chrome for that matter).
Same problem. It appears to be caused by the window border color and transparency in Windows 7 (and Vista, I presume). I changed it by rightclicking the desktop, personalization, Windows color, unclick the transparency box. Now I can see the FF toolbar.
This should not be necessary. It is an error in FF4. Hope they fix it soon.
@jantrade thanks for the additional information. I hope it gets fixed. :(
