I have a toshiba satellite L875D-S7332. It was dropped of bed. When I wake it up it has a white screen with various lines

Can anyone help im not sure what kid of problem I have. It is a dual core 2.7 with 6 gb ram. I have checked to see I the ram got jarred loose and is fine. The OS is win 8. It has a white screen with horizontal lines that fade in a minute or so when I open the lid . After that the screen saver pic and lock screen come on an everything works fine.

Sounds like the internal video connector is loose. You may have to open it to ensure the cable/plug has not come loose.

Worst case(and hope not) you damaged part of the screen.

but the computer works great after it goes past login as long as I don't let it go to sleep
And it doesn't matter if I move the screen or tap the unit

Well that is a strange one. So just the welcome/lock screen looks like that. Can you still see the login fields.

What happens after sleep?

when I turn it on or open the screen it has these random lines. At first it was a 1/4" line across the screen always but now it is white with the line that slowly fades the the pic pops on and all is fine

also once its on I can close the lid and open it right away and its fine. Seems like he longer its closed or asleep , he longer it takes to wake up

I am not sure what would cause this type of error, but if the system was on when you dropped it, I would run a hard drive test to ensure no damage has happened to it either.

Windows 8's sleep also uses the hard drive(hibernate + sleep) so you want the hard drive to be 100% as well.
