Is this screenshot normal, or does it look like its less than 32bit?
Sorry its huge wanted to do as little to it as possible because i can't see if i'm introducing artifacts.

I need to know if its software or hardware without restarting my laptop, because in all honesty, this laptop has definitely seen better days now! I expect this to be a hardware problem i just need someone to confirm

Nvidia having been doing me too well recently, and my laptop just ran out of warranty

I'm going to phone Dell anyway because its not my fault or theirs but they need to get in touch with Nvidia and get some kind of replacement or something because as it stands i can't reboot turnoff or put my laptop into standby without it not turning back on. Which wasn't great but i could put up with that

Now things are getting worse it seems...
