olback107947y1. No flash
2. That's not windows. Cause if it was, it obviously found your boot device.
3. Pull the battery for a few seconds and boot again.
4. Google? -
Start from an Windows disk into terminal and run bootrec.exe /fixmbr,
if it still doesn't boot run bootrec.exe /fixboot -
@moses Please try this if you are using HP Computer and having Hard Disk Error 3F0

Rohr7307yLooks more like message from the bios !?
Check bios settings for boot device order.
Maybe load a Linux live from an USB to check that the local disk is really working and is accessible and get recognised at all. -
julianmd5057yDefinitely try all of the above before actually tampering with the drive itself. Then, if nothing works, check other stuff like any degraded RAID drives that might be breaking your boot sequence. If all else fails, back everything up and redo. Sometimes Windows just gets fucked. I suggest getting into virtualization for easy restores in the future.
