Hi karen_ch,
Welcome to the community
It seems like the hard drive is not getting detected by the system.
Please check if the connections to the hard drive are intact. Also, in the BIOS see if the hard drive is Enabled/On.
Restart the system and press f2 key to boot to the BIOS.
Please let me know the system model number and the OS installed. This way I will be able to paste the exact steps to check the options in the BIOS and show you the link for reseating the hard d rive connections.
Let me know your findings, glad to be of assistance.

It would appear that the hard drive has failed, based on what you have posted.
