Hello Brandon,
What happens if you boot in Safe mode? Have you tried that already?
The first that comes up into my mind is to restore the system through a repair CD if you have one.
The second thing is to restart your computer, go after pressing the appropriate F key to navigate to the Windows menu. From there you should have access to restore your OS. Open the Command Prompt in safe mode and run the command:
sfc / scannow
Then press Enter and wait for your OS to be repaired. If you can not access this menu while you reboot, enter BIOS settings. There, navigate to the storage menu to verify that your hard drive is as a first boot priority. If not, set it!
Once you have done this please, come over here to tell me what happened.

It does not list the hard drive?!?

Since your hard drive is not being listed as an available bootable drive, I would like to suggest you to take it out to test it on another computer. I suspect that it might have failed. If you have the option, please try to take out from the laptop bay and to connect your HDD to another PC. You could do that by putting it in an external case or using SATA-USB adaptor/cable.
I hope it gets recognized on different machine.
