Welcome to Tom's Forum! :) 

At best you knocked loose the SATA cable to the internal HDD or the HDD is dead. At worst you cracked the MOBO and your Notebook is toast.

Therefore, you'll need to access the HDD and re-seat the cabling and pray. As on option you could have purchased, in many instances, accidental damage insurance; you're the picture child of the insurance case.
