Virus causing Bsod ?

Recently as of last week i have had multiple Bsod crashes with different stop codes on my laptop. the most common one is stop code 116. additionally my screen is not functioning properly as there are yellow and blue pixels left behind if either the mouse pointer moves or the window changes.

i believe this to be a virus because i haven't made any hardware changes recently. the laptop when attempting to start normally gets to the password screen then crashes so i have been using it in safe mode with networking.

i have scanned the computer with malwarebytes but it did not find any problems

any help or advice would be much appreciated

thanks
