So after dropping my Packard Bell Easynote with Windows 10 installed it loads its logo, then a Blue screen appears saying "Default Boot Device missing or Boot failed. Insert recovery media and hit any key. Then select Boot Manager to choose a new Boot device or to Boot Recovery Media". I dont have any recovery media or somehing like this. I have heard about damaged HDD's but since I'm low on money I'd want to ask if there is any other way to fix it.
I'm not a tech guy, I'm playing LoL and CSGO, doing nothing else besides that. Thank you in advance.
 
Solution
It could be damaged or it could be just knocked loose. Can't hurt to check. As long as it isn't under warranty any longer, open up the laptop and disconnect, then reconnect the drive.

You may get lucky and that is all that is needed.
