    I'm gonna guess that pic's an actual screen shot. Now considering that, if it were a problem with the LCD, your screenshot would be a clean image showing no problems. But, since it is a screenshot, that says the the graphics are being corrupted as they are leaving the graphics chip. So either you have some faulty RAM there, or the motherboard needs replacing.

    Before you call and book it in for repair/replacement, take the RAM chip out and clean its contacts with a normal pencil eraser. Get them as golden and shiny as you can and reinstall it. If that doesn't work, then you're going to have to get the mobo replaced under warranty if any.
