While I am working on my computer, a Dell laptop Inspiron with Windows XP, the screen will begin to flicker.If I do not quickly shut down all programs and power off, the screen will begin to turn magenta, all images fade away, and the cursor will become more or less "stuck."Sometimes I have to do an emergency shut-down.

Has anyone else experienced this?
Is it hardware or software?
Is my computer dying, or is there a fix?

Thank you,

Erif Thunen.
