Risht side of display turns down resolution

I have a Toshiba L645-S4102, all systems are working, but my screen turns down the brightness and resolution when i try to maximize any window. Only the right side of the screen shows this low resolution problem but the left side is perfect. The problem appears exactly at half of display and the only way I found to correct it, is restoring my screens to minor size than maximized or close and open my screen a few times. Please help me. I can't find a flex cable for this laptop, usually that's the solution on most computers but i don't want to purchase parts I will never need or not solve my problem.

SOURCE: how can I restore my Toshiba L305D-S5895 laptop

You should be able to boot the computer from the operating system recovery disk. Most likely your harddrive crashed, or one of (many) other issues. It could have just erased your MBR, in which case you can boot with a live cd and recover most (if not all) of your data.

SOURCE: i have a Toshiba laptop with a Windows 7 operating system AND A BLACK SCREEN WITH AN ARROW(curser) ON IT

Try running the check disk utility.

To run the check disk utility you will need a repair disc ora operating system disc. Put the disc in the cd drive and boot fromit. You want to get to the Dos Command Prompt (Black screen with whiteletters) and type the following command: chkdsk /r
Check disk will run well over an hour or two and you will notice thepercentages going from high to low, this is normal. Let it run tocompletion. Then reboot machine.

If check disk fails to solve your problem you might have to reinstall windows.Try doing a Repair Install that way you don't loose your data, documents,music, pictures, videos or programs.

In windows xp you get to the dos command prompt by selecting R for repair whenthe options appear.

In Vista and Windows 7 you want to get to the recoveryconsole and look down at the bottom of the window for the Dos Command.

SOURCE: How to solve Toshiba satellite L645 From black screen ?

You may have a faulty inverter, it supplies high voltage to the CCFL lamp.
If your laptop appears to boot up and the hard disk LED flashes, then the problem is probably a back light fault. This can be a faulty inverter or a faulty CCFL lamp. Please click on this link and follow my instructions to identify the fault and possible fix :- http://www.fixya.com/support/r3598095-faulty_laptop_lcd_screen

Toshiba satellie l645 turn off after 1min

Do you get any error messages? If so, post them here. Otherwise, I'd say it's overheating. Make sure all the vents and openings are clear of any dust or fuzz. If you're comfortable taking it apart, see if you can clean the fan for the processor

ANYONE KNOW WHY MY TOSHIBA SATELLITE L645 BECOME BLACK SCREEN BUT THE PROGRAM STILL RUNNING ?

you probably don't need a new screen it's probably your screen inverter that's going. It's just a small strip at the bottom of the screen wjth a little circuit board. If you google screen inverter and the make and model of your laptop you'll see what I mean.

Hi , I have a toshiba satellite L645 , when i play game suddenly my screen laptop become black and a few minute become normal then happen again , what must i do ?

Your laptop cannot handle the game. It's too intense.

More in-depth;
Your graphics are Integrated Graphics.
It is Intel HD Graphics,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_HD_Graphics

Uses an Intel Pentium P6200 processor,

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_microprocessors#.22Arrandale.22_.2832_nm.29

That processor is based on the Arrandale Core.
(32 NanoMeter architecture)

Means It is the first Intel HD Graphics. 6 Execution Units.

Be lucky if it could fight it's way out of a wet paper bag; graphics performance speaking.

Also if you have never had your laptop partially disassembled for cleaning, (Fan/finned Heatsink), I would advise you to do so, and avoid a lot of trouble in the future. (Maybe near future)

Do it yourself? Sure IMHO. You, though, will have to be the judge,

http://www.irisvista.com/tech/laptops/Toshiba-Satellite-L645D-L640D/remove-laptop-motherboard-1.htm

Steps 1 through 25. Pages 1 through 3.

[White - Page 1::Page 2::Page 3::Find another model, on top, and bottom of page ]

ESD wrist strap, and it's alligator clip attached to a good ground source.
Average cost is $3 to $6.
One example,

http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2103245

Set a large metal serving tray (Unpainted), on the table you're working on, and connect to it.
Or a large metal knickknack. (Unpainted)

Use a mutli-compartment container for the various screws you will remove. Label each compartment for the area the screw/s come out of.
SOME screws look VERY similar to other screws.
Advise do NOT mix them up!

Use Q-tips, a soft small brush, (Makeup brush?), and a can of compressed air for computers.

Want to see how bad it can get, and you won't know it until you see it?

I have Toshiba laptop satellite m305D -s4829 when I turn on my computer I get a black screen

Laptops have problems with the wires that run from the screen to the system board. The issue is the they become frayed and need to be replaced. Also check the most obvious solution that some how the screen was manually changed. In other words, the resolution keys were touched and the brightness was turned all the way down.
