From @Newton’s comment (to whom credit):
I am an American and I was asked to turn my laptop and tablet on when traveling from Pakistan to Qatar. The tablet was broken (hence couldn’t be powered on) so they did some extra checks on it and gave it back to me.
If this example was following standard policy, security should be able to verify your laptop is a laptop without powering it on.
