My hard drive failed and Im ordering a new hard drive for it. I need to know after I put my new hard drive in what to expect? And what I need to do step by step? I've already tried to restore or make a recovery disk and couldn't.

O thank you! My laptop will not boot or let me create a recovery and when I bought it, it didnt come with any disks for Windows. Do i have to purchase Windows and reinstall it?
