Problem With Integrated Graphics

My grandmother asked me to take a look at her computer today. It is a Dell inspiron 560. The video output has been lost. When I turned it on the desktop loaded up. The moment I clicked on something the screen turned white. After a restart it only hits the Dell loading screen before doing this. Now the screen is white from the start.

I tested a few different monitors with it and obtained the same results. The monitors do work on another computer.

I was wondering if there is any way to work around this. Could a separate graphics card solve the issue? Perhaps replace the motherboard?

My hope is to replace a part if it can be done, or use a number of the old parts to build another pc. Trying to save them whatever money I can.
 
Boot to safe mode and see if it still happens. If it does then all you can do is buy a dedicated video card and install it.
 
I brought it home with me to work with a little more. Seems to work fine at my house with my monitor and cables. Not sure if both of their monitors are bad, but it is nice to see it up and running.
 
Seems odd that none of the monitors worked while at your grandma's but worked on yours at home. Are they all VGAs or is yours HDMI?
