Laptop screen/Keyboard

Okay I hadn’t messed with my laptop in a while I have a 600YGR Gateway I bought a while back for only 80 bucks. cheap yes. At first everything worked fine just the battery is dead, no use. Anyways the laptop started to turn on but the screen didn’t, I done a lot of suggestions to it (holding power down, some boot info) but if I can’t get the screen to turn on I can’t get nowhere. but I plugged a vga cord in it and works fine on the tv But the screen won’t appear til after windows load up. So must be the laptop screen right? That’s not my only problem, My keyboard doesn’t work at all! no keys except the power button and mouse pad area. I’m thinking from opening and closing the screen a bunch of times caused that problem (I opened and closed a lot of times during the time i tried to fix the screen to appear) So, Is there a way to fix the keyboard? I don’t think it’s a software issue. and I tried to open and take apart the laptop once but something holds the middle of the keyboard part down.
