I have a Razer Blade 17"

 

I don't necessarily understand why it's just falling apart like this but do any of you know which screws I need to order to try to put this back together?

Here are some pictures.

Also, if I buy new screws will they even hold? I don't understand how screws just fall out.

probably not, im guessing the hole is stripped

use glue to hold it together because another screw would either fall out because it is the same size or damage the notebook because it is too big

If you have a local PC store which knows just a little about PC hardware they might have a couple of matching screws.

You could always give it a shot, at least it's going to keep your PC together for a little longer :)

When in doubt: C4

Probably screwed into plastic, over tightening or too much pressure pulling on the screw can easily strip the hole.

I understand that nothing lasts forever but it just sucks to see this fall apart like this. Maybe I'll see what razer support suggests I do.
