Blue Screen

Hi guys, really need some help here.

Was using my laptop and browsing youtube, and suddenly it restarts itself. When it boot up, there are 6 "screens" on the display, as in 6 duplicated screens. After that, it asked me whether i wanna check and fix the problem or start windows normally. Both doesn't work.

When i clicked on the first option it says, problem can't be fix. When i click start windows normally, i got the blue screeen and comp restarts then the process repeats again. After trying a number of times, it manage to work for awhile(20mins?) and after that the same thing happens and i have no luck getting it to run normally again.

Please give me some advise. i have yet to backup my files!

Let me guess, is your laptop using an Nvidia graphics chip? If it is, then most likely your graphics chip had burned out and require a mainboard replacement.
PM me if you want to know more.
