That message typically means the hard drive has failed, but could be caused by media in the card reader, disk in the DVD/CD drive (if present) or the boot loader being corrupted.

 

To verify that, run the Diagnostics routine.

To run the Diagnostics routine, Start tapping the Esc key BEFORE starting the PC and then press the start button.
Keep tapping the Esc key until a popup menu shows. Then pick Diagnostics from that popup menu, F2.
Report back with the results.
