| The GPU is the graphics processing unit, the heart of your graphics accelerator. The graphics accelerator is usually a card slotted into the motherboard of your computer, and is usually referred to as a graphics card. The motherboard is the large circuit board inside your computer.
Some cheaper computers are sold with graphics accelerators built-into the motherboard, known as integrated graphics. A common indicator of this is a sticker on the outside of the machine, or a point on the feature-list of the packaging saying "Integrated Intel EXTREME Graphics", or some such.
Graphics cards are almost always superior to the integrated graphics accelerators, and can often be added to such machines. Sometimes, when a card is added, and not installed correctly, the computer won't know to switch the screen-drawing duties over to the new accelerator (or the user will forget to plug the monitor into the port on the new card).
Another possibility is that you have a card, but it is running with out-of-date or unsuitable driver software. Driver software tells your Windows operating system how to interact properly with the hardware.
Assuming that you are running with Windows 7, you can update your graphics drivers by clicking the windows icon on the bottom left of the screen, then right-clicking on the "Computer" menu option on the right-hand pane of the Start Menu. Select "Manage" (you will probably need to have administrator access - if you don't, ask your administrator to do this). A window will appear. Select "Device Manager" from the left-hand pane. The right hand pane will change. Click the triangle beside "Display Adaptors" on the right-hand pane.
If the thing listed there has ATI, or AMD in its name, download this tool, which will automatically update your drivers for you.
If the thing has "nVidia" in its name, go here, where you will probably be repeatedly prompted to allow the Java code to run, and then to update your Java installation. Just yes your way through it all, and it ought to guide you through the rest of the process (my card is AMD, so I can't talk about this process in depth).
The last possibility is the one Space Engineer mentioned, and the one that your screenshots, unfortunately, most remind me of. The GPU itself could be faulty.
In any case, it's best to update the drivers now, as this may be an old incompatibility that new drivers will fix.
