Lol if you are i need help fixing this bad boy. I've been deprived of PC gaming cuz of this BS!! haha

Everyone says it's the video card but I don't wanna buy that only and realize that need the motherboard replaced too.

Anyone know a good professional local repair store cuz I don't got a warranty from Dell.
Or maybe know a friend whose good at this stuff.. :(

I'll love you forever if you can fix this ^_^

Sorry dude, but it is most likely the video card, just like everyone else is saying. When you get display artifacts like that, that means you either overclocked the video card too high (which I'm going to assume you didn't do) or the hardware got a little fried (Probably from too much heat. Those laptops get mighty hot.)

You're also right in that the video card is likely a component of the mainboard, which would have to be replaced as a whole :(. It could be potentially cheaper to build a new desktop from scratch than to repair your laptop if that helps you save some cash.
