Hi all,

I'm having issues playing Flash games in the latest version of Firefox. When I play a Flash game, the screen will "tear" (one half of it will be stationary, the other half moving, or both moving but on different intervals) and it makes the games unplayable. I've tried playing these games in browsers such as Chrome and Edge, and they run fine with no issues whatsoever. I've attached an image of what it looks like, if that helps. I have the latest version of Firefox, the latest version of Flash and Shockwave (including plugins) , and have tried doing a refresh of Firefox as well as a complete uninstall-reinstall. Both of my graphic drivers are up-to-date, though I suspect they're not the issue here. I just started having this problem today, 2/3/2017. Any help would be appreciated as I am quite inexperienced with these things and usually stumble around a bit. When I'm not using Flash, Firefox works just fine.

Thanks in advance.
