This just started today - I'm currently operating under Safe Mode w/ networking.

When booting up everything seems to go fine. Within a minute or two of processing all the start up items, my mouse will lose the ability to move vertically (sometimes the pointer changes into a large color block). Then the screen will start to change colors picture completely gone (just lines of color - sometimes constantly changing) then sometimes it will try to reboot on its own.

It happened first while I was in Microsoft Outlook - don't know if I opened an email with a virus or if some how my settings got messed up, or if the display is going bad? (Shouldn't it is a Samsung and barely over a year old)

Any thoughts you guys have really helped me in the past.

Thanks
