[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1343709, member: 56379"] It's difficult to know what the issue is exactly. Apple has special diagnostic software (and experience) to troubleshoot things more accurately. If I was to guess (and if this problem happens in more then one software application)...then it's probably (as your title mentioned) the video hardware. Which means a new logic board...and if this computer no longer has Applecare coverage...will mean at least a $500-$700+ repair bill. Unless...there is some sort of special extended repair program (which has happened before with video hardware issues on previous models from the 2007-2008 timeframe)...but as far as I know...nothing that covers MacBook Pro's from 2010 (or 2011) whichever model this laptop is. Good luck,:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
