Hi everyone, I've never really used this site but it seems full of helpful people. My problem is a little bit unusual, but any comments are appreciated.

I was playing a game called Dark Souls (hard as **** game) and I died and go sooooo angry I hit my laptop about 5 times really really hard. I was hitting the laptop with the lid closed. The next time I wanted to use the computer I turned it on and nothing was displaying on the screen. The lights are working, the fan is working, but the screen is black. I then notice a huge crack. Here's some pictures.

So as you can see when I bend the lid back more you can see the crack opens up more. Is there anything I can do to fix or does this require a professional? If so how much will a screen replacement cost? Thanks for reading, it's kind of a weird situation but I just want to watch some movies and stufffffff. Thanks.

Edit: I should know mention that I have general knowledge of desktop computer hardware, but I'm not good with laptops. Reason I was using this laptop and want to use it is because it has a heap of good movies on it. Also, the model is a Compaq Presario CQ56 Notebook PC. It's a terrible computer
 
Hi, if you don't see a crack in the screen, maybe with all the banging the connection for the screen is loose. For the bottom, maybe you could find some on Ebay, but you will have to disassemble the laptop to look at what is really broken. For the movies, you can put the HDD in a desktop, or simply buy a casing and plug it in the USB port.
