    Not sure what you mean here F12 you can switch Browser mode or Document mode and I suppose a whole lot more,
    I made a example here,
    I have three tabs open all running *32 or (x86)
    One running as 64 bit probably windows updates or MSE ?
    I'm referring to this post below. Search Bing I ran across some reference that F12 for trouble shooting IE wasn't WHP function. At least I couldn't get to to work. I'll check some of your suggestions ASAP.

    You might want to play with the settings for "Browser Mode" and "Document Mode" to see if you can find something that works for you.
    I don't use IE as my primary, but I've had no issues with it, and if nothing else F12 is a fun tool to play with"

    Apparently, F12 doesn't work with Windows 7 Home Premium. I am giving up on IE10. I have no idea why it would perform flawlessly for some & not for others. All I know is even with great advice from forum members I can't resolve the issue. The issue is more annoying than anything else. The error pops up but re-selecting a second time usually fixes the error. So, IE10 kinda works & I guess the issue would be a non issue for most but not me.

    So, back to the original FF v22 issue. Changing render (rpx) to 1.0 from the default of -1.0 fixes the issue. I'm marking this post as fixed. But, I did try a couple different versions of FF before settling on v22. v23-beta (64-bit) oddly has the same issue as v22. Then tried an older v20 which rendered normal. Rpx was set to 1.0 instead of v22s -1.0 which caused the problem. But, of course, FF automatically updated to v22 so rpx had to be reset to 1.0 again.

    Thanks to all for their suggestions!:)
    I run Home Premium and F12 works for me.

    I'll admit I do have some problems with IE10 as a matter of fact I had the same problem your having the first time I installed it, plus, it would crash on startup. Crash opening a new tab, tabs would hang, and I still can't see all my folders in Libraries\Pictures, but that doesn't mean I'm giving up on it.

    The one item Microsoft concentrated on before they released IE10 for Windows 7 was graphics. I see your running dual monitors with two different graphics cards, when is the last time you checked for updated drivers for them? Do the monitors need new drivers?

    Here's a thread about ATI Graphic cards (the second card in your specs) and Dell, granted it's for laptops, but a lot of software and hardware gets mixed between laptops and desktops. IE10 constantly crashes | Windows Secrets Lounge

    Did you try clicking on the "Fix Connection Problem" button that shows in your error message in post #22?

    I think you reset IE10, did you do a complete reset? Step #5 here: Internet Explorer - Reset

    You could try the x32 version of IE10 available at Download Internet Explorer 10
    I've put a lot of time into this. Getting angry at FF & seeking other browsers has been like opening Pandora's Box! I've tried, IE10, IE9, IE8, Safari, Opera, Chrome, FF v20, FF v23-64 bit beta & back to FF v22. I didn't like the others & will stay with IE or FF.

    Maybe IE10-64bit isn't ready for prime time. MS doesn't appear to be ready to commit to 100% IE 64-bit. Maybe that's the issue. Or, maybe it has something to do with dual monitors with different graphic cards. Mac doesn't seem to have issues like this because of their limited closed design policy. But, I prefer PC & willing to deal with things like this.

    If I can get IE10 32-bit to work properly I stick with that. IE8-32 bit worked fine, so maybe IE10 will too.

    Reset seems to of fixed the issue! Funny, I thought I had reset to defaults before but must not have. I have upped some of the security setting from "Medium" to "Medium High" with no errors. So far so good. Have uninstalled FF.

    Thanks to all!

    Your welcome.

    Wait, there's more to look forward to. IE11 may be available for 7 sometime after the planned release of windows 8.1 later this year.

    Always!

    Congratulations! Is that a new badge and you have a rep Icon? I don't recall seeing them in our earlier conversations.

    The Supporter badge is one of the more coveted badges.

    That's from a while back. I try to help whenever I can but, as you might guess, have limited skills. Wouldn't feel right advising someone to go the wrong direction.

    I'll have to pay more attention.

    Your skills are not that limited and if you ever have a question or need help, helping another member, just shoot me a Visitor Message (VM) and I'll see if I can pitch in. Put a link in so I know where to go check.
