If its a download you need to create a bootable usb stick: You must login or register to view this content.

And run off that pressing F12.

This will then install your Operating System.

Any issues please quote me so i get an notification.

Thanks

On step 10 where do I get the operating system files from?

Before it went into the black screen it was at windows 8, my question is why does it a required drive partition is missing.

Windows 8 has multiple drive partitions. Some of which contain information that is required to do the automated system repair. You may be able to fix
