I don't know anything about computers. Ever since a couple days ago my laptop's screen has been looking weird. Everything is slightly off color and kindof fuzzy like a television screen. I am freaked out! What is going on?
 
Could just be a loose cable to your screen... laptops are prone to that because they are always getting opened and closed, and that joint there is where the connecting cables are. If its under warranty the manufacturer can probably fix it. You take out the hard drive before you send it so you won't lose your stuff.

Or you could take it to your local Geek Squad and have them see whats up =P They'll tell you if it needs to be sent in (hardware problem) or if they can debug it (software problem).
 
Actually, it probably is a loose wire or something since the color being bizarre sortof depends on how much I tilt the screen.

Not something I can fix? :(
 
Not yourself, I've had my screen connectors go on three laptops over the years. It slowly gets worse. Either get the thing fixed (without warranty though it'll be expensive) or hook up an external monitor to it. Makes it less portable but everything will work just fine and show up on the new screen. I did that with one laptop for a long time :p
