When clicking on a dropdown box or typing into a text box that has autocomplete information remembered, those things are not drawing correctly. you see a partial outline of where the content should be rendered, and you can select it if you click properly or use the arrow keys, but cannot see the content.

This is also happening with some UI, especially the Remember Password UI after entering login credentials for a website.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Navigate to any page (e.g., a bug report in BZ)
2. Attempt to click on a dropdown or enter text in a textbox with autocomplete.
Actual Results:  
Cannot see the information.

Expected Results:  
Should see the choices in the dropdown box or the autcomplete text under the text field.

Occurring on a fresh install of Minefield, latest nightly build on Win 7. Not seeing this on same build on Mac OS X 10.6.4.

I am using a Lenovo T410 running Win 7 Professional with the latest drivers from Lenovo and the latest patches from Microsoft.

Is this tied to enabled Hardware Acceleration?

It appears to be. When I set gfx.direct2d.disabled to true, the issue stops. I wonder if it's an issue with the Lenovo driver for the NVS3100 on this laptop. I also work on a ThinkCentre M57p that has a QuadroFX 1700 in it and I am able to use the hardware acceleration with no issue.

Would be nice if you can post the Graphics Info from "about:support".
Also please try to resolve the Issue by a Driver Update if possible.
