So since wednesday a pattern has been appearing on my screen.
I've checked if its my monitor on my old pc but it didnt appear.
If you want screenshots just write.

Yes, please post a screen shot. Also, is this pattern always there or only sometimes? Is it a laptop or desktop? CRT or LCD? The more information you provide, the better the chance that we can help.

Is the pattern you are talking about behind the window in your post?

Does the "pattern" also appear in safe mode? Try a different display - is it still there?

What is new or different since the last time everything worked properly (ie, new hw, new sw, virus, error, new driver installeld, etc)?

Reboot. As soon as the system boots begin tapping the F8 Function key. This will take you to the Advanced Boot Options screen. Choose SAFE MODE

Will try it tomorrow. I have to go to sleep

jnniboro · « **Reply #8 on:** June 22, 2013, 04:32:38 AM »

I made a video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxuMs18NPmE. There are small dots appearing on the white part in paint. There are the dots.

If you cant see it I think its a screen.
But last week before playing a game on my pc it said that my pc specs has been changed. And asked me if i want to change my settings.

Would you like to explain that in detail please? And what happened in safe mode?

patio · « **Reply #15 on:** June 22, 2013, 01:31:51 PM »

That message is commonly shown with a flat/dead CMOS battery...

jnniboro · « **Reply #16 on:** June 22, 2013, 01:39:56 PM »

In safemode my computer lagged for the first time. Than when i run it everything got sort of windows xp-ish and there was less dots but they still appeared.
Also the message about my pc specs appeared after playing planetside 2 on ultra settings. The thing is my pc wasnt lagging when playing.

Allan · « **Reply #17 on:** June 22, 2013, 01:46:56 PM »

I'm guessing there is a problem with either your display adapter or your display itself. My first guess would be the display adapter.

jnniboro · « **Reply #18 on:** June 22, 2013, 01:52:42 PM »

Any suggestions what to do?

jnniboro · « **Reply #19 on:** June 22, 2013, 01:54:00 PM »

Also where on the mobo or graphics card is it?

Allan · « **Reply #20 on:** June 22, 2013, 02:13:51 PM »

What is the make and model of the computer?

jnniboro · « **Reply #21 on:** June 22, 2013, 02:56:14 PM »

It says "to be filled by oem".
I guess my pc dont have a model

jnniboro · « **Reply #22 on:** June 23, 2013, 04:24:25 AM »

I've build my pc my self.

Allan · « **Reply #23 on:** June 23, 2013, 04:52:55 AM »

And you don't know where the display adapter is?

jnniboro · « **Reply #24 on:** June 23, 2013, 06:31:27 AM »

Display adapter is graphics card right?

jnniboro · « **Reply #25 on:** June 23, 2013, 06:32:54 AM »

Or is it the cable which connects monitor with graphics card?

Right.

jnniboro · « **Reply #27 on:** June 23, 2013, 07:18:08 AM »

So will I need to buy new graphics card?

Allan · « **Reply #28 on:** June 23, 2013, 12:06:35 PM »

jnniboro · « **Reply #29 on:** June 23, 2013, 02:52:46 PM »

Oh well. Thanks for help.

Allan · « **Reply #30 on:** June 23, 2013, 03:01:22 PM »

Make sure you get it from a retailer who will accept returns just in case the card isn't the problem (though it probably is).
