Re: laptop crashed no op sys avail less than a yr old

If you're getting the "No Operating System" error onscreen, there are two different reasons for it:

 

- Someone has completely erased all the contents of the hard drive. If you've burned a set of recovery disks, they'll restore Windows 7 and load all the software the way it was when it left the manufacturer.

- The laptop has stopped detecting the hard drive altogether, likely because the hard drive has failed. If recovery disks don't work, or you don't have a set, bring the laptop along with your receipt to your nearest Future Shop for warranty service.

 

Hope that helps!
