Toshiba reads No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key

[Dj327]

I was resetting my Toshiba to factory setting and half way through the electric went out and now there is a message that says No reboot to restart my system. I have tried everything. I got this laptop toshiba C850 satellite through a training program and it came with no reboot disk. I am a mother of 7 can't afford a new laptop or the $40.00 for a reboot disk. How can I reboot to get every thing back to factory setting .

If you have access to another computer, you can download the operating system from Microsoft (you will need the product key - it should be on a sticker on the bottom of the laptop) and the proper version. Once downloaded, you can make a bootable DVD and/or USB flash drive to install Windows.

You cannot download the retail version and then install it with an OEM key, it is a particular issue with Windows 8 that 7 did not have.

The only guidance that I can offer here is to look at THIS tutorial on what you would need to do.
