    Hello guys, I'm new to this forum. :)

    Anyway, I need a little help. Here's a picture of what I took yesterday:

    It's an Acer Aspire 4740 model with i5 processor.

    Any help guys if this is really a hardware problem or software? I discovered this when I charged my laptop 'til morning converting lots of videos. Sometimes that weird bunch of lines appear in the screen, if I try to refresh, it just disappear. :confused: I also bought this last Feb. 19, 2010 so it still has warranty. Any help?

    Try updating the graphics driver and replicate the issue.
