Camera hardware advice

Wondering if you could give me some advice on my Sony DSC P100. After my camera suffered a bit of pressure when I fell asleep on it with it in my pocket on a bus the shooting screen has been a bit glitchy. Everything with the camera seems to work fine except for the shooting screen, which is black until I hit a button like MENU at which point the shooting screen works fine until I take a picture or switch off the MENU. This would only be a bit inconvenient except I like to use the manual "M" mode, which is quite difficult if not impossible with this blank-screen glitchiness. Any ideas on what I should do? It seems such a minor problem should have a simple fix that doesn't warrant hundreds of dollars to be spent on it.

Thanks a lot for your time,

It sounds like you accidentally pressed the LCD off button. That's the button with two bars around a rectangle. The symbol looks something like |[]|. That button allows you to turn the LCD on and off. And it allows you to turn the backlight on and off. Hopefully there is such a button on the DSC-P100.
