Make sure you are not blocking content.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link}

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

Did you make sure that Windows and all drivers including the display driver have been updated to the latest version ?

Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support to see if that has effect.

Thanks for your help. I have decided to return the computer. A 2 day old computer should work correctly.
