That 0MB (no partitions) shared hard drive suggests a dead battery. However, if the firmware is corrupted, even a new battery may be detected as a dead battery.
What is suspicious is that it appears to boot far enough beyond the "kindle tree" (boy under tree) boot screen to get to the language selection screen. If it gets that far it seems logical that the touchscreen should be initialized.
And perhaps (for security reasons or otherwise) it does not share the real filesystem until AFTER you select a language -- presumably done before loading the framework and seeing if a user-selected password is needed to continue. This seems unlikely though, erasing user settings is what gets you to the language selection screen.
One suggestion -- try swapping screens with another PW2. I did that without removing the screen, just by placing two devices side-by-side and swapping the connectors. It worked. I did that years ago with a K3 as well.
