Welcome to Tech-Forums, SerenityMoon1!!!
First of all we need more information about your computer. Specs? OS? Have you installed the OS already?
These will help us figure out what exactly your problem could be.
OS = Operating System, like Windows
It can't be both Vista and 7 that you have. It's either one or the other.
Have you opened up the computer before? You should check to make sure all the cables are securely connected. Especially the hard drive. But before you do, is it still under warranty?
Like Drogos said earlier your hard drive could be the problem. Are you able to get into Windows at all?
Well let's see if it's detected in the BIOS.
To get into the BIOS you have to press either the F2 or DEL buttons repeatedly once you press the power button. This will bring up the BIOS.
After you get into the BIOS you need to see if everything is detected. Hard drive, CD drive, floppy drive, RAM. You also need to see if the boot order is correct. You'd want it so the hard drive is the 1st priority.
