Hi,
I encounted a strange problem in Pale Moon (using 15.3 x64 Windows 7). I don't know if that could be the reason for it, but in the same day I upgraded my graphics card, reinstalled drivers, everything works perfectly except...
When I run PaleMoon, I can't click on any bookmark in toolbar, keyboard shortcuts don't work and I can't click on main menu/new tab,...nothing. I see my pinned tab opening and loading page, but that's all. Another thing is that cursor changes on places where it shouldnt, for example hovering on random place over browser window changes my pointer to horizontal resize, etc... Process takes 0% CPU and I am able to close it safely through jumplist->close window.
I tried: reinstalling, creating new profile, disabling plugins/extensions, running in safe mode. Nothing helped, or the browser worked for a while and then it happend again. Then I also tried Waterfox 16 and the same thing happens. Only version working for me now is Firefox 18b without any problems, except there's some bug which makes page scrolling a bit laggy.
Any idea why is that happening? After I tried other browser I realised it's not entirely Palemoon's fault, but I can't think of anything and couldn't find any answer/hint except disabling plugins, which didn't help at all.
Thank you

Re: Unable to click on any button/element in window
It's possible this is an issue with your native 64-bit graphics driver you installed. Firefox 18b will be a 32-bit process, Waterfox and Pale Moon x64 are 64-bit processes, using the 64-bit native graphics driver.
To verify, try to use the 32-bit version of Pale Moon.

Thanks for the hint. I've installed 32 bit version and will report again.
Btw. there's no problem with IE 10, which is also 64bit version.

Ok, so 40 minutes later the 32 bit version stopped responding too. It came just suddenly after I pressed ctrl+t to open new tab. The tab didn't open and I couldn't click on anything. The process was still responding but I just couldn't click on any object or make a keyboard shortcut. Firefox 18b still works well but I don't want to use it because it seems to be less responsive than 17.
edit: just in case I reinstalled the drivers again. so far so good. but will report.
