No Boot device available

Hello I need some help, a few days ago my pc showed up with no boot device available, although I have a harddrive connected, after 2 days I bought a new harddrive and placed it in, Still says No Boot Device, but in bios the hardisk shows up in boot sequence.

A little more information please. What is the exact model of your system? And when you installed the new drive did you do a clean install or did you clone the old drive? And if you cloned did you disconnect the old drive before booting the first time after cloning? If a clean install did you disconnect the old drive before clean installing Windows?

your new hdd has no OS therefore it is not bootable and It says No boot device. You just need to install OS on it.  https://www.tomsguide.com/how-to/how-to-install-windows-10

Your old hdd might have failed if it did not show up in boot order inside bios.

If you have the old hdd in pc, this means that hdd is dead, thus Windows 10 install tool can not find it, and you have a blank screen as shown.
