when i turn on my nikon coolpix s1 camera all i see is a white screen whats wrong?

it almost looks like when you point a camera at a computer screen but it's like that no matter where i point it. There has been no damage done to the camera whatsoever. I can view the pictures but that's all i also tryed charging it more and that didn't work either. After i veiw the pictures and go back to the main screen where i would take a picture the screen is black

Since there is no firmware update, I would effect a complete camera reset. This is usually done through the setup menu and may be as easy as removing your batteries, waiting a minute and then putting them back in. After setting the time and date, all should be okay. Sometimes your firmware may not load properly after the camera reaches a certain age. Resetting it back to factory defaults will remedy this.

If not, again, due to it's relative age, you may need to have it serviced. Be advised, however, that if it's out of warranty, it may cost more to repair than it is really worth. The rule of thumb is that if the estimate for repair is north of 50% what you paid for it, you're better off taking that money and buying a newer and upgraded model.

Has it been dropped recently?

no it has never (to my knowledge) been dropped or damaged in any way but i havn't tried taking the battery out for a few minutes so i will do so, thank you

That may not be how you reset the camera, mind you. Check your manual for the proper procedure.

i went to the menu in my camera and found an option that syas reset all settings to default values and i did that but it's not working. I guess i may need to invest in a new one
