ok it was working fine i put ubuntu 16.04 on it and it works great love the os, but here is the thing i just need some idea of what might have happened, everything was going good then i powered off manually then i turned it on again and now only thing i can load is the terminal if go anywhere else i get a pink screen like freezing, cant do anything to it been searching for hours trying to figure out what might have happened, does anyone know what might have happened, if it may be hardware or software the issue, like i said the software was working fine play games and all kinds of stuff just after powering off manually not sure what that would have dont to cause a problem if it did.

Could be quite a few issues, RAM, hard-drive, motherboard. Try re-installing the OS, that would rule out software issues before you start testing parts.
