My computer has been crashing consistently now for a few months and each time the screen locks up and distorted looking bars appear on screen. Here is a link to a photo of the problem: http://imgur.com/XpWkjUX . not sure what is causing it, i have already tried totally wiping my computer. any help would be greatly appreciated.

its a GPU related problem either the card is faulty or there is some drivers issue.
remove the GPU and see if u still notice the problem if u still see the same problem then it may be your monitor or the dvi/hdmi/vga cable..
