Reboot and select proper boot devie or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key

Whenever I start up my computer, it says "Reboot and select proper boot devie
or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key"

I tried to check if the order of loadup in the boot menu was wrong (which several guides tells me to do) But my hdd is not even listed in the bios menu

as your hdd is not listed then it might have died.

It worked fine yesterday, but I switched it off to restart, then when I restarted it came up with that message

happened with a customer of mine except that the drive is still seen but won't load windows because of bad sectors. I've been doing data recovery of her info for the past 4 days to be put back onto her new hard drive that I've installed windows on already.
