Website portion of screen flickers up and down if page size is reduced

I made three connections to Firefox Chat support for this question. All my chat connections with a support person end abruptly (timeout??) without me doing anything.
I am running Sony VAIO w/Windows XP SP3, everything up to date. I made Foxfire my primary internet application.
If I open Firefox, other than my homepage, and reduce the screen size so I can see a second application running behind the Firefox page, the reduced Firefox website active page shakes up and down, does not go black. Only the reduced page website section shakes, not the Foxfire toolbar section and the Foxfire chat page did not shake during the chat.
I am running Firefox add-on extensions Java Console 6.0.16 - 6.0.22, Java Quick Starter 1.0, and Microsoft .NET Framework Assistant 1.2.1
Could this be something related to refresh rate?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

  • At times when dragging the vertical scroll bar my computer screen oscillates up and down for some time before going blank or not responding to any clicks requiring a forced system restart. What is wrong?

    Hi,
    Suddenly while working with Firefox if I happen to drag the vertical scroll bar, a very abnormal behavior occurs. My screen dances up and down for a short time before either going black or getting restored but with no clicks working. The only way to resume is to force a restart of the system.
    Any help would be deeply appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards
    Deepak

    That didn't work. On trying to install a new driver I got the error the graphics driver could not find compatible graphics hardware. Is there anything else that can be done to at least prevent the hanging of the computer even if it means less features from Firefox being available?

  • My monitor screen scrolls up and down on its own by it's self? How do I stop it?

    How do I fix a monitor screen scrolling up and down on its own?

    Sabrasam,
    Thank you for your quick reply.
    I want you to try a factory reset on the monitor if you haven’t attempted one already.
    1.       Press the Menu down in the bottom right corner of the monitor.
    2.       Once the on screen display appears toggle down to factory reset.
    3.       Select on that option
    You might see your monitor go dark a couple times but that is normal. Test it out after the reset.
    If I have been helpful or if you'd like to say thank you for me trying to help, click the white star under my name to give me Kudos. I really appreciate it.
    Please respond at your earliest convenience.
    Thanks

  • Screen moving up and down in remote desktop

    Hi!
    I'm having this trouble since months ago. I conect to a server from desktop remote and everything works fine, until I minimize the remote desktop, I do some things on my local PC and I go back to my remote desktop, when I maximize, most of the times the
    whole screen(only the server) moves up and down and doesn´t allow me to do anything. Later stop doing that and I can work perfectly.
    I had tried to close and open it again, change de screen resolution, and it doesn´t work that either.
    I would really apreciate if somebody can help me to solve this! thanks!

    Hi,
    Firstly, please let us know the OS version of your local system and remote system.
    Meanwhile, what do you mean that the screen moves up and down? Would you please provide us screenshots.
    Thanks.

  • Playbook screens swiping up and down when using charger

    Hi,
    I am facing an issue with the playbook screens going up and down and opening up icons randomly when I connect the PB to the charger.
    The random behaviour stops once I remove the charger but again continues if I connect the charger.
    Let me know the future course of action.

    Does this still happen after the 3 button reset?
    If so, you may have a faulty unit. If you're eligible, try contacting BlackBerry with your free 90 day support. 

  • Safari is unstable (screen flicks up and down) and zooms in to largest size frequently.  Is there a fix for this?

    My Safari is unstable (screen fliocks up and down)  This is especially frustration when I scroll to a link, then it moves while I am try ing to click it.  It also zooms in to the largest size frequently.  Is there a fix for this short of reinstalling Safari?

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.

  • My screen shakes and my browser keeps going to the maximum window size. Screen shaking up and down

    My screen shakes up and down when I am typing or when I click on a new page. If I hold the control button, then the screen doesn't shake. The screen keeps going to maximum size automatically also and the toolbar goes away.

    Hello there Saber7,
    If I understand correctly, the phone seems to think the phones volume up is constantly being pressedbut the button still clicks when you press it. This should be easy to isolate to hardware or software, so I would start by quitting all the apps that are running on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that reset the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

  • Screen flickers on and off

    Please help!
    My iBook screen flickers on and off every couple of minutes - it looks like it's just shutting off. Once it flickered off, flicked back on and the whole screen was red for a sec, and then switched back on normally.
    Does this mean I'm going to need a new computer?

    Maybe.
    There is some kind of inverter board and video circuit which
    may be going bad; and maybe the cost of this (or whatever
    is wrong with it) could be a fair start toward the cost of a
    new or newer computer. There should be an Apple Hardware
    Test on a bootable disc, included with the computer.
    You know, you get a fairly recent OS X version with the
    purchase of an Apple Certified refurbished machine from
    the Apple Store online; and it qualifies for the extended
    AppleCare optional coverage, past the one year service
    and 90 days support (enrolled, it adds total of three years.)
    How old is your iBook computer and could it have any
    AppleCare plan coverage left? There is a serial number
    check box in part of the Apple Support section online.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Try an SMC Reset. (System Management Controller)
    Shutdown>unplug from power for ten minutes>press and hold in the power button for ten seconds>startup again.
    Also try a PRAM Reset. (Parameter RAM)
    Shutdown. At the bootup chime, hold down CMD-Option-P-R together, wait for two more chimes, total three, then let go of all keys to finish booting,
    If this doesn't do it, run the Hardware Test in Extended

  • Why does my screen shake up and down?

    My macbook computer screen shakes up and down so severely that it make me lose my place.  Sometimes it just suddenly drops the page I'm reading a few inches, as if someone were controlling it remotely and couldn't see what I was reading unless they lowered the screen...  This seems to only happen when I am on the internet, and my mouse icon sometimes disappears or goes a little haywire as well, as if someone else were controlling it.  When I try to repair the permissions on my HD, I repeatedly get the message:
    Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.    
    I also get other remote management error messages as well.
    I am being stalked and would like to know if this means my computer is being routinely hacked into through remote management.  It seems like it is. 
    Thanks!

    Thanks for responding.  I tried verifying the disk and both HD icons were error-free, but I can't understand why I have 2 icons for the HD in Disk Utilities.  1 is simply labelled MAC HD and the other is labelled:
    Hitachi HTS542516K9SA00 Media     
    The following was found out about it under INFO:
    Hitachi HTS542516K9SA00 Media Type :          Disk
    Partition Map Scheme :          GUID Partition Table
    Disk Identifier : Media Name : Media Type : Connection Bus : Device Tree : Writable :          Yes Ejectable :          No Location :          Internal Total Capacity :          160.04 GB (160,041,885,696 Bytes) S.M.A.R.T.Status: Verified

    disk0 Hitachi HTS542516K9SA00 Media Generic SATA IODeviceTree:/PCI0/SATA@1F,2/PRT0@0/PMP@0
    Why do I have 2 HD icons when I only have 1 HD?  I don't know how to partition anything.
    Thanks,

  • My Videos are flipping as I stroll up and down the page

    Hello! FireFox...
    I would like to know if someone can please help me solve this problem.
    I'm experiencing this problem only on blogger and Word-press with my videos flipping when I scroll up and down the page.
    This don't occur when I use yahoo videos... I must admit that this is very annoying.
    By the way, my pages use to flip until I upgraded to Mozilla 6.0...However, that didn't solve my video flipping problem.
    Thanks,

    Try to disable hardware acceleration.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
    If it is Flash files then also try to disable the hardware acceleration in the Flash Player.

  • I have a problem with bookmarks page not allowing me to move up and down the page on the "show all bbokmarks" "bookmarks menu"page

    I am trying to set up Sync to enable me to use bookmarks on my desktop and laptop. When I have either one using sync, I can open the bookmarks page using "show all bookmarks" "Bookmarks menu" .But when i try to navigate the page, the page locks up and I can not page up and down the page. the page seems to be locked. Any ideas or should I delete the account and attempt to start over?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Iphone 5c screen flickering, pixelated and then becomes unresponsive

    i got a replacement iphone 5c from apple about 4 months ago. my first 5c started flickering and eventually just gave up on me. apple had it for 2 weeks and sent back what i was told was a brand new 5c. Lucky for me as i was just passed my 1 yr warranty when i got it back. the first time i turned it on the screen flickered a few times but stopped. Now, the app icons jump around the screen and the screen gets so pixelated you can barely see the screen. After this, it will become completely unresponsive and wont even power off. Ive restored it three times now and nothing works.  i feel really let down - i look after my phones and have always bought apple products. the 5c is the first apple product ive had so many issues with. To have a completely unusable phone after 4 months of getting it straight from Apple is a joke and to make things worse im out of my warranty. is there any way of fixing this or at least contacting apple to let them know whats
    happened? the website just keeps redirecting me to various pages which are not helping at all.

    Hello woothie,
    It sounds like your screen is behaving unexpectedly and is not displaying your content correctly. If you had been restoring from a backup, I would next test it out after having backed up and restored as new with this article:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If you had restored as new, or the issue persits, here is the number to call AppleCare directly:
    Contact Apple for support and service
    iPhone
    1-800-MY-IPHONE
    (1-800-694-7466)
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
