    The are all over my screen in certain places, I hope my GPU is not messed up. I just finished re-installing Win XP for other reasons but I noticed the same problem before I re-formatted but to a much lesser extent.

    Edit: You cannot see them in the screen shots I just noticed, also they just went away.

    They are pink, random shapes, moving weirdly.

    it is either an lcd problem, or a gpu problem. i would check to see if all the lcd cables are in correctly.
