Hopefully this helps if not then it would probably be best to contact someone who actually knows about PCs via the manufacturer / stores around your town/city

Can you get into the BIOS at all ? Press F2 or DEL at start up to get into the BIOS.

Ok good. Go into the Advanced BIOS features, and see if your Hard drive is being detected at all. It should be listed as your "First Boot Device".

I would start by resetting your BIOS. Open up your case if is a desktop or a back over if is a laptop. Look for a round battery. Just like a watch battery but much bigger. Take it off and leave it out for 1 minute and re-install. See if that works. If not, then you might need to update your BIOS by flashing it.
