You told that you are getting previously recorded one that means the screen is safe.and there will a button to change the screen for recording to thr right side of the cam or at the back of the cam try it and see.if still your are not getting it then recording part is damaged.

How to fix screen?

It sounds like you may need a new LCD screen or lens. I'm having similar problem with a white LCD screen on a Canon camcorder, but it still records video, I just can't see what's in the frame or access menus. Does yours still record video? If so, it is the LCD screen.

Camcorder Dropped

Sounds like your display screen is broken, but a least it can still record, which is most important; just don't use the zoom feature and point the camera at the action.
