Screen all messed up - HP Pavilion Touchsmart 23

[lWindowsl]

I've opened it up and checked the LVDS Connector and it seems to be in there just fine. I don't get a BIOS splashscreen, the screen doesn't turn on right away, it takes like 20 minutes or so then this screen pops up with Windows, and it's all messed up. 

 

It is a HP Pavilion Touchsmart 23. With an AMD A8 FM2 Socket APU for CPU and GPU 

 

Edit: I was able to get a second monitor working fine with no artifacts or anything with a USB to DVI/HDMI adapter.

Try to downgrade the driver..

roll back the driver if you did any updates

 

 

but looking at it

 

it may be hardware related

 

did it just happen recently?

I can't even get into Windows anymore.

A friend brought it over because it has been sitting in a closet for the last 1-2 years, and he wants to get it working again, but he found out it didn't work. I think it's hardware issue, b/c no usb power or anything when I turn it on. No beeps or anything, just black screen no usb power.

In that case, try to hook it up to a different display
