Solved BSOD with colorful lines on screen and sudden Crash

[ygssoni]

Hello,

I have a Dell Inspiron N5010 laptop. Since last 3 days I am having a problem with my screen. Colorful lines and dots appear on my screen and system get freeze. And then after 5-10 seconds the BSOD screen appears, couldn't read it because of that lines. I have tested my laptop screen connecting it to my monitor, lines appear in other monitors too. So it's not a faulty LCD. I also reinstalled my windows three times, with formatting drive C: completely, it works fine for 2 hours and then lines appeared again. Please look at those pictures of my screen I have attached. I have also attached log report for DM log collector.
Also, some times lines disappear, and then after performing some operations it come back.

Please help. Thank you!

1) Video card
2) RAM module going bad
3) RAM timing issue (not likely as PC would usually not boot)

I dont understand. Do I need to change my video card or RAM?

Sorry. First likely cause - video card; second likely cause - RAM module; third likely cause - RAM timing (not likely)

Seeing the crashes are all 0x116 I would say it is a bad GPU.

Diagnostic test

 GPU TEST

Run Furmark to test your GPU. Furmark tutorial

   Note

Run Furmark for around 30 minutes

   Warning

Your GPU temperatures will rise quickly while Furmark is running. Keep a keen eye on them and abort the test if temperatures rise too high
