Read your laptop manual recovery disks havent been given out for years with a laptop there is useualy a partition on the harddrive for recovery that sets the computer up the same as the first day you used it.
Your manual will tell you what key you need to hold down for it (useualy a key like F12 F8 ect ect)
But it sounds like the hdd has failed on the laptop.
I had a similar problem before. To fix it I went into the bios, put the efi boot manager as first in the boot order and the drive with the os right behind it in the boot order.
