There is nothing that you can be helped with. You will need to phone Asus to get recovery CD's. Else find the recovery CD's that came with the laptop.

SOURCE: computer beeping and saying reboot and select proper boot device

When you reboot, go to BIOS, restore factory BIOS settings. If that doesn't help, you'll need to reinstall your OS.

SOURCE: reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media

This error is informing you that you don't have to proper booting device selected in the bios ( basic input/output system).
It is either pointed to a CD or DVD drive and not the hard drive if installed.
You may have lost the hard drive boot sector.
Usually at start up the screen will give the choice what boot device you want to start your operating system with that is the hard drive or the CD or DVD.

It sounds like you have a bad hard drive. Make sure you don't have any CD/DVDs in the drive if that model has one and you don't have any USB devices plugged in at boot.

Boot Problem in my ASUS Eee PC 900 netbook

First - re-seat the hard disk and reboot the computer. If the computer does not boot up then reboot and go into the BIOS configuration to see if the BIOS detects the hard drive. If it doesn't detect the hard drive then it could be faulty.
Then the hard drive needs to be replaced in the computer/laptop, Windows installed and the computer or laptop's device drivers plus your programs etc. to get a functioning computer/laptop again.

What if disk drive does not open during system says reboot and selesct proper booot device

Sounds like you may have a CD/DVD in the drive that is stuck and/or not inserted properly. There should be a small, pin-size opening on the front plate of the CD drive. Find a large paper clip, bend out one end of it then insert into the pin-hole. Push it until the drive pops open.

Your ASUS cannot find the hard drive to boot up.

If itdoesn't detect the hard drive then it could be faulty.Then the hard drive needsto be replaced in the computer/laptop, Windows installed and the computer orlaptop's device drivers plus your programs etc. to get a functioningcomputer/laptop again.

Did you buy the notebook with an operating system (Windows) preinstalled?

Sometimes you just get the hardware and need to install the operating systems yourself.
