Text and graphics lag/cut and overlap when scrolling

Asked by ChoLi

When I'm on any website in firefox that is bigger then my screen, when I scroll, the text and graphics get all messed up. Like the lines of text will get cut, repeated, and overlapped. But then as soon as I select another application, my firefox window goes back to normal.

I deleted my preferences and plugins folder, and I also reinstalled firefox. But the problem still persists.

And this doesn't happen in any other application, so I don't think its my video card.

Any suggestions?
