When I start it up I get 2 options boot menu and bios settings...If i don't choose either of them I get..
media test failure, check cable
no operating system found.

:err: forgot Wicky PC expert may not know how to do this

Start the computer.
Start tapping the F8 key on your keyboard. Do so until the Windows
Advanced Options menu appears.
If you begin tapping the F8 key too soon, some computers display
a "keyboard error" message. If this happens, restart the computer and try
again.
Using the arrow keys on the keyboard, select Safe mode and then press
Enter.

Maybe he knocked off a plug in the laptop when he bashed it then :?

insert windows cd in the drive and try booting from it
if it doesnt want to boot from it then i guess hard disk cable could have unplugged itself or it could have been damaged
if bios settings are ok then its not the bios chip thats damaged that is a big plus already
