Toshiba Satellite Laptop with distorted picture

Hi there again.
Yes it does sound like display drivers although it could be the bios graphics controller or the graphics chip so keep an eye on the startup screen for the same thing. In the meantime right click on computer, select manage from the sub menu, then select device manager, it will generate a list of devices, click on the + icon next to display adapters, right click on one from the drop down list and select uninstall, restart the pc and let the operating system re-install the drivers automatically, this should hopefully resolve your problem.
Please keep an eye on the bios/post screen because that could be an indication of more serious issues.
I hope this sorts out the problem for you.

Kind regards and thanks for using FixYa!!

My Toshiba laptop screen has what looks like a

Misuse is the most common cause of this. from the sound of it, it looks like the screen had suffered a severe impact, and it either broke, or the electronics inside the screen went loose. If You're absolutely sure noone dropped it, or hit it with anything, didn't use any solvents etc. to clean the screen, You could take it to Your Vendor and ask for a replacement or repair, but I'm afraid that they will refuse to repair it for free in terms of physical damage to the screen.

Not working dvd reader

Your DVD drive is not working properly it seems that its lens is weak. For this problem you can contact any laptop reparing farm they may provide you a internal DVD reader just like you have on your laptop.
Or else you can buy an external DVD drive. Now a days these are less costlier and easily available in the market. You can go for LG,ASUS,Enter etc.

Unlocking my games

Stephanie, you don't say the operating system you are using.

The games do not have to be unlocked but they may not have been loaded. In XP, go to the Control Panel and then Add or Remove Programs. On the left side there are four buttons, select the third, Add/Remove Windows Components. Click Accessories and Utilities and you will see a check box for Games. Check it and press OK. It may ask for a Windows CD to load from, but the CAB files are probably loaded on your system. Then the games will appear in your All Programs listing in a folder called Games.

Is the product key for Microsoft office 2013 the same as all product keys for 2013 Microsoft offices that operate under laptops using windows 8.1?

The product key is associated with the MS Office 2013 software, not the specific MS Windows version of Operating System - unless the MS Office lists a minimum version of OS ie: "Windows 8.0" In this case, it would not install on Windows 7. Otherwise, you should be able to install it on Windows 7, Windows 8, or later.

Japanese Visa Application with COE denied. Why?

How to Get Employment Security With Correct Japan Work Visa Japan is no different from other developing nations whereby grass seems greener on its side of the pasture. It attracts its fair share of foreign businesses as well as nationals seeking to work within its lands. Albeit many adhere to immigration procedures, some choose to test their limits on the basis of ignorance or defiance. By understanding the different types of work visa in Japan, it assures its foreign workers a continual stream of income with no threat of arrest and deportation. Visa simply infers the status of residence. Citizens obviously have no need of it as they automatically satisfy qualifications to freely reside in their country of birth. As for those of alien status who wish to join the local workforce, there should be a category to match one's requirement. Since most countries strive to improve the overall quality of life, professionals are generally welcomed to contribute knowledge and skill. Unskilled labor is normally not granted a visa to avoid flooding and dilution of the workforce. The visa is awarded in accordance to one's area of expertise. Supported with proof of relevant experience, it is based on the field of involvement whilst working in the country. In the event one's work scope changes from one expertise to another, it is essential to apply for a visa under the new circumstances. Different types of work visa in Japan also apply to foreign companies seeking to conduct local business. Domestic companies based abroad wishing to set up a local point of presence need to provide supporting documents to justify internal transfer of foreign workers. Governmental staff for diplomatic duties is assigned a category for legal residence. Over and above the general groupings, designated activities also garner approval from the authorities. Domestic service for non-native residents and citizens of certain nations on working holidays fall into this category of working visa. This, by no means, is the end of the list as it is best to consult the authorities on which visa serves best.Click Here For More Details: http://japanjobandvisaservice.com/blog/change-your-luck-when-apply-work-visa
