My dell inspiron 1300.

The laptop goes fuzzy at the bottom half of the screen when the computer starts. It goes clear again straight when the booting sequence starts. (sometimes it boots fine).

I am also getting random BSOD's now. Memory_managemet / fault to non paged area / usb etc.

I was thinking mabe someting in the bios/motherboard is corrupt. An update to the bios didnt fix it.

Any advice?

Thanks.

BSOD are normaly hardware faults. It could be the video card circuits of your laptop are at fault.
