An operating system wasn't found error

[higgsisaac]

When I turn on my pc it tells me that an operating system wasn't found. I tried using a USB to boot from to get a fresh install but it gives me the same error. I can't find any help on this and I'm starting to panic 🙁

1| Is this a laptop or a desktop?
2| Can you get into BIOS?
3| See if you can locate the boot device order and if Windows Boot Manger is the first option?
4| If nothing comes up on the Boot Device menu then your storage drive has expired(probably).

1)Desktop
2)yes
3)currently the first boot order is my hard drive

So you can see the hard drive in the BIOS. Either the operating system is corrupted, or the hard drive is failing. If you are trying to do a clean install from your USB flash drive, change the boot order in the BIOS so the USB drive is first.

Never mind! I found that the USB had been wiped at some point (not sure when) thanks anyway!
