Graphics Card Issue?

Oct 2, 2014 12:41PM PDT

Hello! So about 2 days ago, I got a new iPhone and started downloading stuff from the web. And all of a sudden, come next day, my screen is weird! I do not believe I downloaded anything that would affect my computer in this kind of way. Please help!!

It is supposed to show the screen. It used to be clear. Now it shows weird colors. It plays fine, but the colors are off.

Use restore feature
Oct 6, 2014 1:42AM PDT

If this is a desktop PC, then return to a prior time/date when it didn't happen. Review your "restore points" and then use it to return as the PC was prior to your recent changes. Of course, your restore feature must be active or enabled, it usually is. The pix you provided really didn't offer if this was desktop or iPhone based, then I suggest you check how your PC syncs with the iPhone if that is possible. In other words, your post was lacking or descriptive of details.

Better Picture

Here is a better picture. I am sorry about not being more descriptive, but it's just frustrating. But, this happened after I jail broke my iPhone. I did not download anything other than what was needed to jailbreak it, which is a Pangu software.

In the picture, The taskbar should be transparent, not pattern-y. And the mouse should nt have those bars below it.

Please help!

Two options:
1. Replace the fan.
2. Replace the card.
