HP Envy Touchsmart M7 j078ca

Silt water on my HP Envy Touchsmart M7 j078ca and it is 3 years old. When I turned it on, where the power adapter goes in used to flash 3 times. I [urchased a new MoBo and installed it. Laptop turns on but now has an error of no boot device. I feel i may have connected this drive to another laptop and might have formatted it. HP doesnt provide Recovery Media on their support page.

 

How do I optain recovery Media ???

 

Thank you

Recovery Media is the last item in the list of software/drivers on your Support page. You may have to change OS to Windows 8 (original OS) if it defaults to another OS:

https://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-envy-touchsmart-m7-j000-notebook-pc-series/53549...

 

Btw-if you didn't replace the motherboard with exact match Recovery Media won't work. It must have the info in BIOS that matches original system configuration for recovery to check.
