Sony Vaio screen not working properly

Hello, I own a Sony Vaio (model: VGN-AR51J) and I have a problem with the screen.

When I boot the laptop up in normal mode, the colours are all over the place and lots of green dots are on the screen. The green dots stay there for a very long time, causing the laptop not to boot up or display anything.

 

However if I boot the laptop up in safe mode, everything seems fine, the screen works again. As I am typing this, I am using safe mode but I will be unable to use the laptop if I boot it up in normal mode.

 

Here is a video of me booting the laptop in normal mode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Nik21HIjBs

 

What can I do?

Thanks,

Edward.

 

P.S One of the screen hinges (the left one to be exact) has broken off, not sure if this could be part of the problem? Pictures below.IMG-20140619-01643.jpg

I boot the laptop in normal mode and this happens. However when I boot the laptop in safe mode, the screen is fine, help?
