Need help now!

Open the above in a new window to see the full screenshot.

For the blind people.

I know this is a short blog, but I don't know where else to ask. I don't know what's wrong. I need some help pronto because I just BSOD'd and I don't really want this to either keep happening or for me to drag it out so long that I can't fix whatever is wrong.

I'm on a laptop, and I haven't installed any new hardware in my system. I DID plug in my Xbox 360 controller a couple of times recently, but it wouldn't make sense that that would affect the video driver and I have actually used it to play games before… so I'm really confused here guys.

If you need any info, I'll try to get you what you need to help me. Hopefully someone can diagnose the problem and give me a solution from the screenshot.

Yeah. It's the discoloration and every time I try to boot a slightly graphically intensive game, the graphics driver crashes. >_>

You shouldn't have bought a laptop, that's all I can say about that. =3

At least it wasn't a macbook.

It still sounds like it could be a toss up between the hardware and the drivers. Odds are that it's the hardware, but just do a quick format. It could save you a lot of time and money. Even if you reinstalled the drivers, remnants of the last ones (especially if they corrupted) could still be kicking around.
