First off, I already had windows installed. Had to reboot and black screen said, "media failure" inserted ASUS disk. Gives me 2 choices. A.) Make AMD B.) Freedos command promt. I tried A and inserted a blank disc but that didn't work. Idk what to put for B. HELP......
 
Solution
The media failure message most likely referred to the hard drive. If it is three years old (from your PM), it is entirely possible the drive has failed. You will most likely need a new one.
Was there a disk in the drive when you booted? If not, the "media failure" may have unfortunately referred to your hard drive. Make sure its data cable is secure on both ends. Also make sure it shows up in the BIOS, and is correctly identified. How long had it been working? Days? Years?

I was so frustrated and had no idea what to do so I will have my stepfather erase everything and start fresh. Unsure why it said media failure and completely shut down but hopefully my stepfather can repair it. What was I suppose to do? "blue screen of death" shows up and screwed up my computer?! *DEPRESSED
