Boot Device Not Found Hard Disk (3F0)

[Chantelle6]

My laptop overheated and decided to blue screen on me, I naturally panicked and got rid of the restart thing it was trying to do by accident and now the screen is stuck on:

Boot Device Not Found
Please install an operating system on your hard disk.
Hard Disk (3F0)

F2 - System Diagnostics

In a blue error with a black background. 
I have tried all the solutions aka BIOS (that is version 2.0.2.0) with the F10's and F9's , unable to bring up the troubleshoot with F11, the numbers + enter thing, F2 to do both Hard Drive Check's etc. But none of these have worked for me at all. I have looked on Google, YouTube, I asked my father-in-law who is a retired computer tech  and even on here but nothing has worked. I only got the laptop for my birthday this year so it is not like I have it for a long time and  it happened 3 hours ago of me posting this. Also, I do not have a USB to connect to the laptop, the laptop battery is built in so I can not remove it. I do not have money to replace anything or even buy a new laptop itself.

I just told everyone here that I have done all the solutions that I can find on here but none of the stuff works and mine does not even look like it does within the pictures. Also, I am unable to get the ESC menu thing to open.

Hello Chantelle6,

overheating (CPU, GPU, bridges ...) is a serious thing. In this case the notebook has to be openend and the Thermal paste has to renewed.

> I do not have money to replace anything or even buy a new laptop itself. 

You will need to borrow a replacement unit from someone. Your hard drive should be removed and connected to the new notebook via a USB-to-SATA adapter to access your data.

I can give you this advice.

Please report your results.

I can not get one from anyone at all, no one in my village or household has the stuff I need. I do not have money for a new laptop, I am 80% homeless due to personal reasons. The only other laptop I have is a Acer and I do not own a USB

Hello @Chantelle6 

Please go to a laptop repair shop, tell them your personal situation (homeless) and ask them to repair it for free.
