No operating system

[Stnw]

Hi my Sony laptop vpceb1zoe 2 1/2 years old, I have had to have two new hard drives fitted at£150 a time it is getting to expensive.
My problem now is boot up erro r cannot find operating system.
Have tried my emergency discs 3 at the first disc it hangs at 18 percent
It did seem to be running a bit hot.
I think this all may have something to do with tring to do return to factory condition. That's when it all went wrong
Please can someone help me
I am retired and really can't afford another £150
Thanks in anticipation

Hi my Sony laptop vpceb1zoe has had two new hard drives fitted at£150 per time. It is only 2 1/2 years old.
I tried to do a return to factory condition .
I now get the message can't find operating system.
Tried using my emergency discs disc 1 gets to 18percent then just hangs.
Is it the hard drive again?
Thanks

download system rescue cd and re-build the boot partition. Had happened to me too. Problem is the bios - you need to repair the system, then boot into windows and update the bios to the latest one from sony's website.
