[urgent] windows 10 isn't installing on my laptop (self.techsupport)

So, a few months back, my sister accidentally dropped the laptop and for some reason, it wasn't booting up anymore. When i tried to watch YouTube videos and try to do stuff in bios, like changing boot mode and stuff, it said "no recoverable boot device found" so I figured that I'll have to install windows 10 again. I did that, created a usb installation media, and inserted it in my laptop. It's been 3 hourse, and it's just showing blank screen. When I put the usb stick in, it showed a windows logo and then it turned blank. I've been waiting for 3 hours and I'm getting kinda worried now. Any advice? My laptop has 1tb HDD, 4 GB RAM and Intel Pentium.

Does the hard drive show in the bios under storage devices? If not, you are outa luck.. you would need a new disk or boot from a live usb
