HP Notebook (ENERGY STAR)

All of those little rubber things around the outside of my screen have fallen off. Where can I get new ones because it can't be good for the laptop when I forget to be gentle closing it. 

I know I put this in the wrong category thing but I didn't know which one.

Your mystery notebook, if it is similar to others, would likely require the purchase of a much larger component than the little rubber feet that protect the cover when you close the lid.

 

If you are interested if finding whether it is possible to order just the "feet", search for the parts in your notebook's Maintenance and Service manual

 

Support Home > Find your product > when product page opens, look in Category Manuals

 

-- or try looking up available parts in Parts Surfer

Cheap and easy...

If I were you I might go to the nearest office supply store and pick up a sheet of little round "sticky" felt or plastic feet.  Choose a size that fits the area and is of sufficient thickness to provide protection without forcing the lid to put pressure on the hinges.  Place a number of these little "feet" on the edges of the area where the lid closes and makes contact with the base of the notebook.
