Just bought a mid-2010 Macbook Pro off of ebay for a great price. I've had it for a week without any problems... until yesterday.

I was browsing Chrome and all of the sudden, random grey pixels appear. Whenever I move my mouse or something on the screen the pixels switch around. They are always scattered all over the screen. A simple computer restart and they go away, but they came back this morning (and went away after a restart).

I'm no expert, but I think that it might be a problem with the display connection to the motherboard? Maybe the computer is overheating (I don't find it that hot)? A missing driver?

Thanks in advance!
