you don't seem to know what 're-boot' means and are confused with re-install.

your computer seems to be configured to look on a specific hard disk for its boot loader. for whatever reason it isn't teh disk that you have installed windows to so its failing. as it doesn't know 'how' to boot it stops and tells you to re-boot (which is effectively telling you to restart it and tell it where a valid boot loader is)

when teh PC starts press whatever is required to enter teh BIOS or "Setup" sometimes its DEL, F2, F10 or even ESC, all depends on teh PC. when in look at the boot order and tell us what the settings are. there is usually primary or 1st and secondary or 2nd, sometimes there is a 3rd but not always.
