what kind of notebook is it?

If the BIOS does not have diags, then there is probably a small partition from the boot menu (manufacturers install). If not, there is likely at least a recovery partition.

Watch your laptop screen during boot. At some point before Windows starts up, you will see a small menu, usually toward the bottom of the page. Press the appropriate key for the boot menu. If you don't see the menu, try pressing F12 rapidly immediately after you hear the beep .
