Hi Carosopo,

The reason you are getting that error is because there is no boot sector on your hard drive. You need to install Windows 7. Let me suggest you follow the Windows installation guide (link below). The first step is to boot to the Windows installation disc.

Mr. Osprey is right, windows installation is required to boot the computer. The error "No boot sector on internal hard drive" appears when you have a new hard disk or your old hard disk has not bootable partition.
