Graphics Problem Since 1803 Upgrade

I am having problems with graphics since the 1803 upgrade and the next
day's additional upgrade. Both Chrome and Firefox are affected and the
problem occurs on a number of web sites. Usually, there is a blank
area where the graphic or picture should be. Of course, there is no
problem with Microsoft Edge - interesting! Anyone else seeing this?

I don't know if I'd use the word "interesting", as much
as I'd use a swear word if Microsoft broke my browsers.

Try checking whether there is a hardware acceleration
setting in Firefox, one that you can disable for testing
and see if the images come back.

Chrome has a "flags" setting, and perhaps it's in there
on Chrome.

Both Firefox and Adobe Flash, have their own hardware
acceleration settings, and you can disable it in one
or both. In Firefox, this is likely to be hiding
behind the URL "about:config".

Did you check Device Manager, and see whether a "real"
driver is there, or is it the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter ?
MBDA is the same thing as the old VESA fallback driver.

The MBDA makes the screen work, but is unaccelerated, and
treats your video card like a large clay brick.

And that still happens in the non-Edge web browsers when you start them
in their safe modes to eliminate any interference from add-ons installed
in them, like ad-blockers, which you did not or cannot install in Edge?

Did you try flipping the GPU acceleration option in those web browsers?

Did you do a in-place upgrade or a clean install?

I heard that Micro$oft has just released an update to fix Chrome's problem.
