  1. Problems with red and green squares showing up on screen


    Hello, I have recently been having trouble with Red, Green, yellow, and black squares Kind of like a color selector showing up on my laptop. Its shows up on the sides of Google Chrome when I type stuff in, also in the scroll bar on the left hand of my screen Only in google docs, as well as on random ads with plain text with white backgrounds. It has also occasionally shown up in text boxes. The colored boxes show up when I screenshot so maybe it's a GPU problem This is what I believe it is but I want to get confirmation. I was also thinking it could possibly be a graphic card malfunction

    :)

    red square on screen

    Hi there EddieRomani, I will be your Independent Advisor for today, I hope we can both resolve your problem.

    Is the red square visible when you first power up the PC? or is it just visible when you login to your user profile?

  3. Green screen

    Hi Nancy,

    The issue you are experiencing may be due to a corrupted software or a hardware failure on the computer. However, we need to perform some troubleshooting steps to isolate the cause of this concern. Before we proceed, may we know the following:

    • What were you doing when you encountered the green screen?
    • Did you make any changes on the computer prior to this problem?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • Are you also getting any error messages when experiencing the green screen? If so, can you send us a screenshot?
      Note: Please do not include any personal information.

    green screens

    Since I upgraded to windows 10. I'm getting green screens on IE, Firefox, Microsoft edge videos and on some movie apps. But not on Google Chrome.I have tried all the community step by step suggestive, instructions. But the problem is still there. I understood
    that Microsoft is having some issues with windows 10. Is that a fact? .
