    Hello, I am having a problem with a HP dv series laptop, the screen goes black, and once turned grey with black zigzag lines across the screen. After the restarting the computer it all turns back to normal. The laptop has a 7 Go series graphics card. I tried to use a 3D benchmarking software and Gpu-z to see how the card reacts, the maximum temp it went to was 90C and the screen didn't turn black. Any help would be appreciated.
