Man I don't get it. I can not keep a laptop alive. My first laptop I used and abused. Dropped it, fixed it, dropped it, fixed it, landed on it long boarding, fixed it, etc... It was pretty iffy though so I got a new one. Last semester I dropped it and broke the screen loose and the screen was black. About a week ago I dropped it again and a white line came down the right side of the screen.
And now... I dropped it again today after tripping over the cord and the entire right side is glitched...

All my laptops have been HPs... I'm starting to think they have no resistance to being dropped. When I've dropped it it's like 2 feet onto a carpet.
Any who what should I do? Do I need to buy a completely new screen? I have a Pavilion dv5. More details in my signature. Can anyone help me find a screen on ebay or something? I just want to make sure to buy the right one.
Oh and on another note my laptop randomly turns off on my. Whether it be a BSOD, turns off, random static sounds then turning off or something else... (I just upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 after a full wipe and it still turns off)
Thanks everyone! I appreciate any advice you might be able to help me with!
EDIT: If I move the screen the whole screen flickers and glitches.
