Aspire 7736Z MAJOR issue !

I replaced the HDD in my Aspire 7736Z. I ordered the disks FROM ACER.

I keep getting the "No Operating System" error.

The disks that were sent by Acer will not boot and I cannot figure out how to boot them from a "bootable disk"

 

The BIOS sees the new HDD and the DVD player but will not boot.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks

    Restart the computer and then keep tapping F2 key to enter BIOS.

    Select boot tab > set the first boot device as CD drive (Atapi)

    Select exit tab > save changes.

    The computer would restart automatically and boot from the recovery disc.

    I have tried that. It does not work.

    I tried contacting Acer but they want to charge me for the tech support, even though I JUST bought the disks

    Have you tried to press F12 at boot and select DVD/CD as bootable device?

    I'm not an Acer employee.
