Why is my screen going fuzzy and stops working?

I was using my laptop today and all of a sudden lines started to appear on the screen and it slowly stopped working. When I restarted I also had problem as It froze on the load up. It worked briefly when I loaded it in safe mode but the lines soon begun to appear again.
Does anybody know what is causing this?

GPU is failing, or the cable, or the cable connection.

  • Why is my screen going grey and then white and cursor gets stuck

    Hi there, why would my screen be going grey with pixels on it and then completely white and the cursor gets stuck and then disappears.
    I have to click scroller a number of times for it to start working again.  When it does the screen colour change from grey to white the writing on the screen disappears aswell.

    Could be a graphics chip issue.  If the machine is newer than October 2011, boot with the 'D' key on its own.  Otherwise find the original installer discs, or use this tip to find the age of the machine to make sure you can get the right hardware test with the 'D' key boot.   You can either call AppleCare for the original discs, or see if it is available from this link:

  • Sony ICD PX312 screen goes blank and stops while recording

    Hi, 
    i have two Sony ICD PX312 and sometimes while recording it stops by itself. I have Auto Switch Off disabled and i have tried with different batteries. It is quite umpredictable. Sometimes happen, other times not. Aobut 10 o 20% of the times. And it goes off a any time after the beginning of recording.
    The problem appears in both of the units i have.
    Thanks

    If the Integrated Chip (IC) recorder is not recording, stops recording or will not record to a specific file, follow these steps to troubleshoot this issue:
    NOTE: Because each of these steps represents a possible solution to this issue, check the recording status after completing each step.
    Make sure that the volume control is adjusted correctly.
    Check the display for the available recording memory.
    Verify the HOLD function is not activated.
    If applicable to your model, make sure the VOR function is set to OFF.
    Verify that the OPR indicator illuminates when recording.
    Adjust the MIC sensitivity setting.
    Install a new battery.
    The troubleshooting steps listed above should resolve your issue. If you have completed all of the steps and the issue is not resolved, service may be required.

  • Why is my screen going white and then black?

    Since Wednesday [two days ago] my phone has been acting like a dying television. The screen will go white and then black and then it won't respond. When I am able to get the screen to come back the picture freezes, jumbles, and will not respond to my touch. I have the 32GB 5C with the most recent updates installed. The top two corners of the screen are also raised in comparison to the bottom corners. I've heard from a friend that my battery could be swelling and was wondering if maybe this was also part of the problem.
    I spoke to an apple care specialist who told me to restart, reset, and reboot the phone, but each step only made things worse. I have not damaged the phone, I've had a case on it at all times and it has not been exposed to any water.
    Any help would be very much appreciated. I will not be able to take it in for service until Sunday [two days from now]

  • Why is my screen going blue and not chargeing

    my little girl was chargeing her ipod and the screen went pink then green then blue and now it wont charde or do nothing what happened to it

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why does Itunes keep freezing up and stop working?

    It is kind of getting old but my Itunes player (does not matter which one as I update to the latest version) has this nasty habit of freezing whether I am trying to listen to the radio or my own library.
    It is now happening almost every time I use Itunes and when it freezes the only fix is to do the old Control-Alt-Delete.
    I am running a 64 bit Window's 7 home premium and prefer using Itunes but you know if you does not work get something else
    I have 4 GBs Ram with a 2.6 Dual Core Pentium

    Just out of curiosity when you say iTunes sent you here, do you mean that there was a link to here in the iTunes application, or that someone from Apple sent you here?
    There are lots of posts from general iTunes users on this forum so I'm curious to know if/how people are being misdirected.
    Thanks

  • Why do plugins get slashed out and stop working? how do i fix that?

    using logic 9, my computer glitched a bit (i have a pretty full session running) and then some of my plugins and instruments had a slash through them and they wont play back now. how do i "un-slash" them if possible?

    Restarting Logic and reloading the project should get them back - it sounds like you ran out of memory. Are you running in 64-bit?

  • HP start up screen goes fuzzy

    Hi guys, a few days ago my HP desktop computer started turning itself off while I was in the middle of using it. Now this morning when I turn on the computer the blue HP start up screen goes fuzzy and then it then the screen shows goes crazy and shows all different colours (links to pictures below). I have taken my computer apart and vacuumed the dust and put it back together. I have not installed anything in the last few weeks so I don't think it's a software problem. I have tried it with another screen and it does the same thing so it is not the screen.
    Images of what's happening:

    If anyone has experienced this or can give me advice on what to try, I would appreciate it greatly.

    Hello,
    So from what I understand you’re getting very odd colors and graphics on your monitor, which I did look at the pictures and I appreciate you posting them
    Well since you have already tried a 2nd monitor and getting the same response it could possibly be an issue with your graphics card or a bad video driver. Can you provide me the make and model of your computer so I can further investigate the issue.
    Please respond when you’re able to get that information.
    Thanks

    Hello there jodi o,
    It sounds like you are unable to access the iTunes Store on your computer. I would recommend you use the following article to help troubleshoot that:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store
    If the issue persists after using the info for your operating system in the above article, here is the more advanced version with further troubleshooting info:

    If you are using Windows, you should also try the information in this article:

  • My phone screen goes blank and after a minute or so goes back to home screen. why?

    hello. my phone screen goes blank and after a minute or so goes back to home screen. why? any help please?

    Howdy mbaeguasu,
    It sounds like your iPhone may be restarting unexpectedly while you’re using it. Take a look at the article linked below and, if you haven't already, try installing the latest version of iOS on your device.
    If your iOS device restarts, displays the Apple logo, or powers off while you're using it - Apple Support
    So long,
