that is working till the step where you have to select the disk to install it on. then i see no disk.
Hi, as you've not indicated anything about whether you have had until now a functional disk in the laptop, please confirm that you have a disk in it, and what sort of disk it is. (HDD, SSHD, SSD.... etc).
Please also tell us whether the laptop has recently booted successfully. You say:
implying something has gone wrong recently.everything is working. untill today now i get bios if i start up the laptop.
To check the disk, assuming you mean from post #1 the laptop is unbootable, you can try using a live boot disk - e.g. one made using Kyhi's iso, available from the top of the Software and Apps section. That includes programs you can use e.g. HD Tune. There's also a partition manager and a lot more as you will see.
Sounds to me like the hard drive has died and is no longer being detected by bios. Check to see if the hard drive is securely installed and connected. Try removing it and reinstalling it. If that doesn't work, chances are it's time for a new hard drive or SSD.
It is an ssd, but someone told me to clear whole disk like the laptop is going to a recycle. Was that maybe a wrong action to do?
There is almost no chance for SSD to die, it is 2 years old only.
Booting is not working as well. Only from mediacreationtool until the part where you have to select harddisk
You have been given tools to use above- please do that: you can try reseating the device.
