Quick #Mac #tech question for anyone:

Just fired up my old #MacbookPro (2011 model) that was working fine 6 months ago (has been kept charged), and am getting all sorts of bad things on the display.

It is full of tiny black lines running horizontally, and entire desktop is offset to the left about 2”, so I see the left side of the desktop on the right side of the display.

Is my video card shot or does that sound like an operating system glitch?

@Av8rdan Kinda looks like it's reading/writing to an offset memory location...

The obvious troubleshooting step is a simple reboot.

After that, I'd try connecting it to an external monitor to see if it's an issue with the display or the output.
