So recently I booted up my machine only to find it freezing on the gray screen with the apple logo (boot screen). I booted in verbose and was about to post the picture in the forum asking for help. I then realized while the computer was booting and still in bios that when the gigabyte logo came up there were white dots in a pattern all over it. I tried swaping hard drives with a backup SL OS and got the same results at the Apple boot screen. A bit perplexed, I decided to wipe this drive and install Windows. When the Windows disc loaded I had the same dot pattern but also the colors on the screen are blotchy and looks like something out of an old computer. That's the best way I can put it. Is this a symptom of a card going out or could it be something else?
