Starburst on my Laptop

I booted up my laptop and yes there was a galaxy of stars right on the screen. Oh dear! What's happened now. Something is definitely wrong. I ask my boy and he says "Yes dad and I noticed it yesterday". "I guess you didn't want to tell me". "Yes we were all in on it even L. that's his friend."

Well mum's the last to know and it's my computer. On my last laptop the screen just went black, cut out for several years and then came back for a month and hasn't been back since. You have to connect it to a regular computer screen to work with it. At least this is not right in the middle. But how long will it continue like this, or get worse.
