Screen Almost Failure

I have ad my ASUS notebook for a little over a year now. In the past couple of weeks my Screen has be acting funny. And today my entire unit insta shut off while in use after the worst episode yet. Let me describe the screen because i think fixing that will address the crash. What it is doing reminds me of getting a bad antennae TV signal. You might be able to see 70% of the picture but that 30% is spread across the screen in horizontal blurred lines running from edge to edge. It does not always happen and when it does, it seems to intermittent at best but sometimes that 70% turns into 20% and the screen seems to be bouncing around in my monitor. Any ideas? It almost seems like a bad connection or short but maybe I have a software issue

 

I'd say first check the connections. If that doesn't work you probably need a new screen.

 

Yea, try the connections first. You don't have an nVidia 8xxx series card by chance, do you?
