Hi,
Both mean the same! "'ve" is just the abbreviation of "have".
As example, you can say "I have got a new home" or "I've got a new home"!
Hope, I could help you! ;-))

you always have to place "still" before the verb you wanna use!I do not know the correct word order.
So in your sentence the verb is "have got".
You're sentence was already right, guy!

That's not actually correct.
The correct word order is "I have still got ..."
The rule that applies is fairly simple: An adverb goes directly after the first auxiliary verb or, if there is no auxiliary, in front of the main verb.
Since "have got" contains an auxiliary "have", the adverb "still" has to be put behind it.
