I have a Dell Studio 1558 laptop with a i7, 4GB ram, and an integrated gpu.

Everytime i start the laptop, it boots fine, passes the login screen, but a few seconds later, the screen turns into a interlaced cobweb of different colors and then restarts 5 seconds later.

It is not a heating problem because i checked the temps on the cpu, gpu right before it crashed. Also a few months ago I took the laptop to a computer repair shop and they told me
it had something to do with the motherboard so they installed a new one and it worked fine for a month or 2. But now the problem is back and I'm wondering if you guys know what it could be?

-thanks in advance!
