Elitebook2560p
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

So i found my old Elitebook 2560p today and couldn't get back into it since I lost my encryption passcode and password and went into bios and performed a secure erase and in the process it wiped the OS off my hard drive. Now the laptop wont let me use anything but system diagnostics and the error screen saying boot device not found( using and of the f function keys dont do anything but bring me to the system diagnostics page). I would try and install a new OS like its telling me too I just can't get to the screen that I can select to boot from USB.
