Smart Check：recommend action-executing DST. Long DST: not available

[EmmaShook]

Recently, while I’m using my desktop, it suddenly freeze on me and game me a blue screen. Then after I reboot my desktop, it gave me an error message. 

Boot Device Not Found

Please install an operating system on your hard disk. 

Hard disk (3F0)

F2- System diagnostics. 

So I pressed F2

I ran a memory test, passed. Then I ran a quick check on hard drive, passed. But when I ran an extensive check, it gave me a message said,

Smart check : recommend action - executing DST...

Long DST: Not Available

what dose this mean? And how to solve this problem?  Please someone help me out here. I’ll really appreciate.
