Screen says o boot device available strike f1 to try to reboot strike f2 for set up f1 does nothing and f2 is set with all the manufacturer recomendations
Your CPU isn't recognising your hard drive. If it is a lap top, check to make sure u didn't accidentally loosen it, there is an unlock button on bottom of some laptops that unlocks your hard drive. If that isn't the issue, then some how either the plug came loose or your drive is corrupted. There are many ways to fix it, but recovering data will be difficult. If there is data that you must have, you will have to replace the drive(or use a friends CPU) and get data recovery software. You can also just bring the drive somewhere like best buy geek squad or other reputable CPU repair man to have it recovered. If you do that, they will sell you new drive and recover all data possible and restore CPU to factory settings.

you can try this steps to resolve your issue:
1. clean your disc drive with white cloth and alcohol
2. try to re-install the OS
3. if this won't work try to download another boot disk like EBCD
or ask a friend to create you a boot disc and try to boot your computer with it.
- This can rule out or confirm a Bad Windows OS disc, thus let's you install you Windows OS in the process.
4. try to re-install again the OS

it is hard drive or HDD is damaged or corrupted, i will advice you to buy and upgrade to a new
one and then install back the OS, I mean that you need to install back the operating system. Firstly
open up the system and remove the old and damaged HDD "hard drive" then put the new
one in after you might have purchased, you can get a new HDD from just about any computer stores. After you have put in the new HDD, then reboot your system and put the opearating system CD into the CD drive to start the installation of the OS, follow the instructions carefully. But make sure you get the correct component for the CPU.
If this is difficult for you to do, kindly get a computer engineer or technician to help you out. Thanks
