Q: Since updating my mbp it has started freezing on a bright blue screen with verticle lines.

Hello, II have just used teh software update and it updated my macbook pro - I think I am now using Maverik, 0SX 10.9.2

My computer keeps crashing with a bright blue screen and verticle lines. One time it crashed so it looked like my desktop was a split screen. I reboot and it starts up OK but then it happens again. I have run disc utility which says I there are no problems. Does anyone know what is happening and how to fix it?

Thanks

MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Might be a hardware issue. (graphics card)

Run the Apple Hardware Test

If you don't want to do that, take your Mac to an Apple Store or Apple certified repair provider.

Thanks for replying so quickly Carolyn, I'm going to try backing up my computer first and then give this a go. x
