All of a sudden trying to upload a YT video the Mac started spazzing out and shut down. Now there are random lines across the display and it’s stuck on the startup screen.
Computer is a MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.0 15" Early 2011.
Questa è una buona domanda?

Plug the serial number from the back of your machine in here and then tell us what you have:

That the exact machine I was betting on. Your GPU has gone bad. This is a very well know issue on this model. Apple was repairing it for free for a while but that program is over.

Best thing to try is installing gfxCardStatus. This will enable you to turn off the dual graphics. It works OK but limits your ability on graphic intensive programs like PhotoShop:

I mentioned in the non-answer comments it's an A1286 model
MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.0 15" Early 2011
How do I install it if I can't get past the boot screen?
I found an answer on the Internet to the GPU problem and I would like to thank you for pointing it out!

No that did not work, the computer kept restarting over and over until I let it go

Can you give us your exact model.
Look at the bottom cover hopefully you can read the S/N and then plug it into here EveryMac - Lookup. Let us know what you find.

I'd put money on it being the 2011 15" MBP
