@farhan56524 sounds like your computer can't access your drive with the OS on startup. Could be a drive failure or a software failure. Check in your computers BIOS and see if it can "see" your HDD. If so, it is possible a software issue. Get a USB bootable drive and start your computer form that. Then see if you can access your HDD.
To enter your BIOS reboot the laptop, and as soon as it begins to restart, press the "F1" key at one-second intervals until the laptop enters the BIOS utility. If the laptop boots without entering the BIOS, reboot again and press "F2" instead; this is the BIOS-access key for some Gateway models. Sometimes it takes a few attempts to get it just right.
