Screen scrambled after update with Intel GMA HD Graphics [closed]

Today my laptop froze after it waking up. I rebooted my laptop, saw the grub screen, hit enter, and then everything got scrambled as seen below:

 (sorry, not enough karma to embed)

This scrambling is not confined to the splash screen. It persists after logging in. I restarted and booted windows 7 without issues. This leads me to believe that the cause is some funky driver update.

Has anyone else experienced this? I've tried running 'dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' from the command line. I've also purged the xserver-xorg package and resinstalled it. Any ideas? Can I maybe roll back the driver to a previous version (assuming that is the case)? If so what package contains the Intel graphics drivers?
