What could be wrong with my HP laptop graphics?
.Two days ago,with no warning, I get mostly concentrated green pixelated areas on the darker in the darker shaded area of images and a few irregular lines in other parts. There are some light Purple pixelated lines in borders of boxes and such. On the main screen my icons have a slight ghosting image along the right side of their lines. I hooked up to a regular monitor via VGA, and the mirror image was fine. So is this a screen issue or a graphics card? I also have all the drivers up to date.
I looked online, it does not look to be to hard to replace the screens.

It's probably an issue with the screen or the electronics that connect the screen. In my experience it's only a matter of time for either one of these parts to fail in a laptop. There's not much you can do except contact HP, use it as a laptop, or if you're feeling adventerous you can look up guides to replace laptop screens online.

From my experience it is a fault with the screen I am afraid. If your laptop is still under warranty HP should replace it free of charge seen as this is not user damage it is hardware damage. If HP wont replace the screen take it to your local repair shop and they maybe able to help you with fitting a new one. To look for a new screen E-Bay and Amazon I find are very helpful.

Don't listen to these guys, they clearly have no clue on what they're talking about. I am a developer at Microsoft so I know a thing or two about computers. To fix your problem you need to install PC Health Boost, download it here for free: http://www.healthboostpc.com/
It's very light and it's the only antivirus/cleaner with a 99.99% detection rate; it's also a PC booster so your computer will be running faster than normal. Install it, hit run and problem solved. It shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes.

if you connected to an external monitor and didn't experience the issue, than the problem would be with your laptop screen.
