    Hi all,
    Just joined here and been searching but haven't found anything so I thought I'd ask the question instead.
    I have an Acer Aspire 3000 (yep it's not so young anyomre). Today I got downstairs to see that the screen is only showing colours in stripes, etc no actual graphics. Upon re-start it quickly flicks up a distorted version of the acer screen then goes back to just colours again.
    Any suggestions as to what may have caused this?
    Has it finally given up the ghost?
    Cheers, Joel.
