Default Laptop screen and heat issues

I have a sony vaio fz180e. Recently i noticed that after 5 or so mins of use, small grey diagonal lines appear across the screen. they are very light and were at first hard to see but have become more prominent over time. Another thing i have noticed is that there is a color difference between my laptop and desktop screens. when looking at a white page the laptop screen seems almost to be yellowish in color, and not a true white. I googled this a bit and found that sometimes this can be caused by the laptop overheating....not sure about this. got coretemp and recorded temps around 56c while idling! this shocked me because my desktop idles at 27c and rarely goes above 56 on load. is this normal for laptops and what do you think could be causing my screen problems? Any thoughts would be appreciated!


thanks,
David
