Hi, just randomly my pc screen has gone funny! I turned my pc on and the monitor now has these coloured lines running across it and eery time i click anything it makes it worser. I have tried to fixure out the problem. I took that monitor out and attached it to another pc, then the lines are not their, so this means there is not a problem with the screen. I replaced the wire connecting the screen to the main system but it still has the colours on it. So now i was thinking theres a problem with the actual connection on the montherboard maybe? So i opened up the pc and made sure all the wires were secure and cleaned out any dust, then when i turned the pc back on it was fine....but then a few seconds later the lines came back again? I dont know how to describe them, it looks like when water has gotten into an lcd basically, and you have all these weird patches of colour, but i can garuntee no water has been their. Any one who can help me?

It sounds like your graphics/video card or your onboard graphics have bitten the proverbial dust. You can get a new graphics card at any major electronics store.
