need HELP!!

[eeriephenomenon]

so what a crappy night im having... in the course of 10 mins my xbox 360 AND my macbook crash on me! thats karma for ya...

so i turn my macbook and i see the white/grey screen and here the welcome sound... but then a whole bunch of vertical colored lines start to fade in. anyone know what in the world is going on?! i havent heard about this before so if anyone knows what i can do about it that would be a great help!

thanks much!

Did you have a power surge? The vertical lines imply it's probably the logic board in which case you'll want to take it in to Apple. Good luck.

At this point you can try a few different options.
One option would be do take the battery out of the laptop, let it drain completely, which may take days, so prob not for you, and take the empty battery and recalibrate it, full charge plus two hours.
Otherwise, i would take it down to the nearest mac store, get an appointment with a mac genius ahead of time, and the genius will likely repair or replace
