cubswin2323 Mainstay Registered: Sun Jan 31 2010 Posts: 931 Loc: Omaha, Nebraska	I switched to using Firefox as my FT screen. I've noticed when I scroll up sometimes, the screen "whitens", and freezes up. Why? Is there an adjustment I need to make in my settings somewhere? _________________________ -Dave December 23rd is Festivus. A Festivus for the rest of us!

Give those a shot one at a time and see if unchecking/checking them solves the problem. On the same screen you can also try unchecking hardware acceleration, there are many known issues with that depending on OS and computer hardware. Gives you some things to start with anyway.

I wonder if it worked? _________________________ Error: Keyboard not attached. Press any key to continue..
