Whats the resolution and refresh rate set to on your PC? The link you posted says the max is 1024x768, 60 Hz. If you start in safe mode do the lines ect go away?

Current resolution: 800x600
Refresh rate: 75Hz

Hmm can't reboot in safe mode cause even during POST before windows loads, all I can see is lines going downwards.

anyways thanks for your help.
