Hi:

 

Did you reinstall the operating system?

 

Hard drives don't come with an operating system on them.

I'm trying to find a way of putting windows 10 on it as it just comes up with boot device not found is there anyway I can use my mobile to do it thank you

Hi:

 

You are going to have to find another PC with W7 or newer on it and use the Media creation tool from the link below to create bootable installation media that you can use to install Windows on your new hard drive.

 

Download Windows 10 (microsoft.com)

 

You will need an 8 GB USB flash drive to make the installation media.
