Hard Disk 3F0 problem

[Lensy]

I have laptop that is old 1 month and it was working perfect. But now I have "Boot Device Not Found" or 3F0 problem. I tried evrything except opening laptop and checking hard disk, but I don't want to do that because I think I will do something wrong.
When I turn it on, it says:

"Boot Device Not Found

Please install an operating system on your hard disk.

Hi there Lensy,

Most probably, there is something wrong with the HDD.
In case you have some important data stored on it, you can use some data recovery tool for DOS mode and try to retrieve your data. You can check this out: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/267999-32-recover-data-mode
After that, you can use some data HDD testing tool for DOS. In case there is something wrong with the drive, you can just contact the laptop's manufacturer and eventually RMA the drive.

Keep in mind that you can do these things if the drive is not completely dead. You can check whether it is recognized by BIOS.

I already found solution, I sent my laptop to srevice. But I haven't seen information that you gave me while searching for solution to this problem, so it will probably be helpful in future.

Thanks.
