You can try to disable OMTC and leave hardware acceleration in Firefox enabled.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.


Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over problems.
