There's no need to buy a new one, you can buy only
DC power jack. I hope only the jacks broke down and not any inside electronics!
Many thanks for that way cool link!!!!
@joan_toko As far as just the "hitted parts", Maybe... if your lucky it's just the connector... if the circuit board is cracked.... then outlook is not so good.
Also if you've never soldered... don't let this be your practice

. Buy some cheap kit and assemble it to learn.
Another skill you need to practice (again not on your laptop) is de-soldering... Very critical to get the bad parts out of the way.
