Green screen on startup

Good morning,

 

I have a Dell Inspiron 8600.

On startup, the screen was green. The screen now displays very fine verticle red lines

and the colors on pages are "off", gree, blue print.

All functions appear to work well.

 

Thanks for any help.

    Does the same fault appear on an external display?

     

    No --> bad LCD

     

    Yes --> bad video card.

    Thanks for your reply..........External display, is that a separate monitor?
    Can I change the video card or the lCD?

    Yes, an external monitor - see if the fault appears on it.

     

    Yes, both parts are replaceable.
