Screen behaviors: crash, lines, colors, bars...

Hello everybody!

I'm having some issues with my MacBook Pro... Two weeks ago it started to crash and do crazy things on the screen... Check these pics, please...

I started to search for some solutions, so I reset PRAM, I verified the Hard Disk several times and used the Installation Disk four or five times as the Disk Utility said there were a problem with modules or something...

The thing is I backup all my info and I clean my Mac and reinstalled everything, twice...

Now, the screen goes to white/gray and I do not know what else I can do...

This is the report from EtreCheck...


Any help?

If you have a monitor you can connect the MBP to it. If the monitor displays the same image as the MBP, then the GPU is faulty. If the monitor is displays a 'normal' image, then the display or the display connection is faulty.


The best option is to make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a FREE evaluation. You then will know the exact reasons for the display problems.


Ciao.
