turns on but shows a damaged internal screen

when I turn the hp mini net book on it powers up though it shows a damaged internal screen making it hard to see what is displayed on half of the screen. The device has sufficient power and has a charging cable to keep it charged. the problem is being unable to view the left half of the screen due to the internal screen being damaged. Unable to view the start icon in the lower left half of the screen due to the damage to the internal screen covering half while allowing the right half visible. Is there some way to get both sides back to the point of being visible as a whole?
