Huge Computer trouble?

A little while back, about 5 days ago, I dropped my samsung R580, and it crashed. It is a laptop.

Nothing will start up.

It freezes on Windows is starting

Every version of Safe Mode Freezes up on CLASSPNP.SYS

Samsung System Recover locks on Loading

Windows 7 Recovery Disk Freezes on Loading Options.

Windows USB Setup Freezes at Setup is Starting...

Trying to Boot an OS from an external harddrive does nothing

Only thing I haven't tried is installing ubuntu, and I expect to yeild the same result.

Nothing seems knocked out of place, and I opened and took apart and rebuilt the computer.

What is wrong with it? I really don't want to buy another computer.

Update:

Nevermind, I was able to sucessfully install linux no problem, then easily reinstall windows 7 with no problems. Don't know what the problem could have been.

    Try re-seating the RAM, then replace the drive.

    Dropping it could have damaged several things, so there's not much else you can do.

    The hard drive will now be useless, replace it and install windows with a Microsoft windows disk or your system restore disks.. this will sort your problem. Do not try to do a recovery as this data will be on the damaged Hard drive.

    I think you require a SATA 160 -500Gb two and a half inch drive, It does not have to be samsung.

    Something like this drive will be fine.

    I would say your drive has had it, cannot take rough treatment.
