My laptop went spastic about a month ago and after doing a bit of research I have a slight suspicion its the graphics chip. I hope somebody can recommend a repair shop or any suggestions would be welcome.

Heres the problem:

One day the screen for the laptop just went black and had a white line underneath it. My first thought was "the screen is gone". I had a working spare from work, so I replaced it but this time when turning it on it was just blank, the backlight is on and the computer powers on as I can hear windows starting up.

I thought I'd test it with an external monitor so I plugged it in and all I could see was a distorted screen with very low resolution. I managed to navigate to the device manager and I could barely make out an exclamation mark over the display device. Here is a picture

Could somebody please advise me on whats the best thing to do. Its a really decent laptop with an nvidia card. It has served me well and still got some power in it.
