Product: OMEN 16.1 inch Gaming Laptop PC 16-b0000 IDS Base Model
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

So, my laptop always had weird issues with installs failing and bios issues, but now that my 1 year warranty expired and my laptop suddenly got screen pixilation, I have found myself in need of a new motherboard / video card.   There are 0 on the market which tells me I am far from the only person that has needed to replace parts…   Does anyone have access to the parts I need?   If I go to the “authorized HP repair centers (I.e. Best Buy) will they have the parts?   And, since HP sold me a lemon, but the “onboard tests passed” does anyone have advice?   FYI, the last time my computer ran w/o pixilation, I ran the self tests and everything passed.    Then the PC froze, the screen pixilated and it refused to work for a week.    That was when I finally brought it to the shop to get diagnosed.
