All right here's the problem. I had linux mint installed on my samsung np300e5x and I was trying to reinstall windows, but i was getting only some grub options, none of which was allowing me to boot windows or any other cd/usb image or even enter into my bios settings. So i deleted the grub partition and all the others and on the next reboot i got only boot menu/app menu screen with linux mint option and couldn't boot not even in linux. I tried resetting the cmos and the only thing that changed was that now I'm only getting a blank boot menu / app menu screen and nothing else. No bios, no linux... i tried pressing every possible key and the only thing that works is the escape key which resets the system... Help?
 
Solution
If you see GRUB, this means that you are not booting off DVD or USB.
- Make sure USB/DVD are enabled as boot devices, ahead of HDD
- make sure your USB/DVD is properly prepared.
- Check with Samsung manual how to enter BIOS
