White lines/bars on screen, can't boot in normal mode

[cluelessjoe]

I turned on my PC earlier on today and there was a white bars/lines on the screen throughout the bootup process. I'm unable to boot into windows as it hangs and goes into black screen after loading past the windows logo, however I'm able to boot into safe mode but still having the screen filled with white lines. I've tried system restore to no avail. What could be the problem here? I'm thinking its either the graphics card or the monitor. Any advise?

AMD FX-8120
Windows 7 32Bit
4GB Ram
AMD HD6870

Do you have intergrated graphics on the motherboard? You can try removing the video card if you do to make sure that it's either the video card or the monitor.
If you had another video card that you could try that would help as well.
