Scrambled screen, then no Fedora

I'm not sure what's happening on my new laptop - the F13 one.  I had quite a 
few windows open. when suddenly the screen scrambled - it looked as though 
holes were punched in every character.  The wallpaper and plasmoids were 
unaffected.  It held like that for a few seconds, then dropped out to a black 
screen with a white cursor.  It wouldn't accept any input from keyboard or 
mouse.

I powered off, waited a while and powered up again.  It got to the f-infinity 
buble completed, and stuck there.  Thinking that it may be a kernel update (I 
usually reboot when I see one, but could have missed doing) I tried the 
previous kernel.  Exactly the same.  f-infinity.  That's all.

Any ideas as to what could have gone wrong?  Without a clue it's difficult to 
decide on a plan of action.
