MacBook Pro no display (black screen with vertical stripes)

Hi,


A couple weeks ago my macbook suddenly stopped giving display. When I turned it on it gave the screen that you can see in the picture I added in this thread. Black screen with vertical stripes. First I thought it would be a GFX problem. But then out of nowhere sometimes it would work fine. Now it hasn't worked in over a week. So its definetely a problem that should get resolved. Also now there is slight flickering you see. First it was ONLY black screen with vertical stripes.


It's a MacBook Pro A2289.


To me it looks like a GFX problem. But some of you are way more knowledgeable than me so I would appreciate your help!


Thanks in advance.
