When it tells you there is no OS, that is usually a sign that the hard drive has failed.  When it jumps to the Diagnostics, has that been run?  If yes what does the results tell you?

If Diagnostics has not been run, do so and report with the findings.

 

BTW: also post the full model number of this PC for complete help.

Well run the diagnostics and report what it says.  If it does not run try this

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.

Also need the model.

 

Otherwise, replace the hard drive and reload Windows from an install media.
