you may have a bad connection on ribbon, or a damaged ribbon due to broken hinge
replace hinge as soon as possible, before other good hinge snaps or rips screw studs off the lid, then you would need to buy new lid

Hi I have a similar problem with my laptop.

Toshiba Satellite P200-1EE
Model no:PSPB6E-0GMO28EN
Mainboard: ISRAA LA-3441P

The LCD is blank and only get a 1 second white flash then blank as laptop continues its boot up. I have changed the Inverter and no joy, I have a working backlight out of a smashed screen and when connected into a tested Inverter it doesn't light up at all. The laptop will work fine when connected to an external display. If anyone has had a similar issue any help would be greatly appreciated. I have read on different sites this is a common problem with Toshiba Voltage regulators is this true many thanks in advance.
