I have a Asus G75VW-BBK5. Yesterday trying to install windows 8 on a new partition i press "format" by mistake on the partition called "System", now when I turn on my notebook I get a message saying: "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected boot device and press a key ".
Well returning your system ( as Cecil noted ) might be an option.
If you have a 64 bit Windows 7 SP1 install disk ( can find download from microsoft digital river ) that might possibly work for repair ( doubt it but worth a try ) ... it would need to be SP1 to understand UEFI environment ( not the base original Win 7 install ).
If you create a bootable CD using MiniTool Partition Wizard 7 you should be able to delete all the partitions on your existing drive then head into a fresh Win 7 SP1 install.
If you go for the fresh install choice and keep your machine instead of return/exchange you should purchase from asus a set of recovery DVDs. The problem with sticking an ISO out of the recovery DVDs that people burn themselves on their machines is that it carries along the Win 7 installed OS keys ... guessing the factory supplied DVDs would prompt for a valid Win 7 registration set of numbers ( which you have on the bottom of your laptop ).
Bottom line: People should update to latest asus recovery utility and burn themselves a set of recovery DVD's immediately before starting to do anything else with their system!
Good luck and keep us posted!
