Funny screen and refusal to start

My Toshiba A105 has lately developed this problem. When I start, the screen starts drawing lines from the top down, line by line with colours tanging from dark blue to grey. I eventually get a white screen divided into two by a broad black band down the centre. Need to add that the laptop does not work at all thereafter. Could someone please solve this?

Sounds like a Video ram or system ram problem which is on the system board. Needs service.

My screen shows all these crazy color ribbons and won't work. It started just being shakey, and now the screen doesn't show what is going on on the computer at all.

I am sorry but it sounds like your screen has developed a problem, either that or your Video hardware has packed up. This is a common thing.

Flickering Screen on Model P105 Toshiba Satellite

on the back of the LCD is a cable that goes from there to the Motherboard. Try reseating that cable on both ends. If that doesn't fix it then it has to be a problem with either the screen or the cable behind the screen.

Toshiba A105 dispay

This is usually a sign that the LCD is going to die and needs replaced but it could just be loose.

If you are comfortable with computers and have some knowledge you could try taking the face plate off of the monitor and making sure the connection plugged into the back of the LCD is securely fastened.

The laptop could also be overheating. Try setting it on a table and using it with nothing covering up the vent holes. see if that helps.
