Alright: SO i was playing a game lastnight when the graphics went abit screwy, there were purple dots all over the screen,
I put the laptop on standby (Hoping it would load, didnt want to lose my savegame :grin:) But then it bluescreened.

Now the laptop will only boot in safemode with another screen attached, and that screen now has lines down it

I also have the BSOD dump

If anyone can give me a hand, i would appreciate it.
 
It sounds like the Graphic card is failing, if not already. And don't ask us if you can buy another card, because, you can't.
 
^ was right, it is my graphics card
When i launched CCC
it was like
"Nope, amd drivers are missing."

So i could try to reformat maybe...?
 
Is it under warranty?
No, its a few years old, usually i can fix the problem myself.

Are you sure i cant replace a ATI Mobility Radeon 4870?

I managed to boot it out of safemode,

But parts of the screen a missing, White bars going across all sorts of ****
 
If it's an ATI Mobility Radeon 4870, it's going to be a separate (dedicated) card, not integrated onto the board.

Here, show's its not integrated:

Look on eBay to see if you can find one.

To be sure, what laptop brand/model do you have?
