Wow, what a tough lesson to learn. You must build a USB drive with Bootable ISO of OS install. Change your bios to boot from usb and rebuild it.

Have FUN!

OK, What O/S?

Do you have a dvd player?

Have you ever accessed the bios before?

Get a version of the OS that matched the License on your machine, and spin it up in the DVD drive. When it prompts you , select repair installation.
