Im using Dell Inspiron N5010 model laptop. From last week onwards my laptop display started showing horizontal or vertical bars of different colors instead of displaying original picture or video. This problem arises few minutes after turning ON my laptop.

Sounds like a bad video chip now it may be possible before the lines appear if you keep pressing F8 when you turn it on go in to safe mode and disable the graphics card it should use the Intel graphics instead. but if you can't you will need a re flow that is a temp fix or replace the motherboard.
