No operating system found!

My daughter has a Gateway laptop model MX3560. After using it with no problems yesterday, it now wont boot up and says no operating system found. Any ideas what the problem can be?
Thank you.

Well, obviously it means it can't find Winslows. Was it dropped, or jolted perhaps knocking the HDD out of position?

What were you doing on the machine before shutdown?
