i don't know what to do now since the HDD crached, and i can't do anything to recover the laptop

For HDD, you can take it out and then connect it to another system to see if the data can be retrieved or not. If not, then you have to check with a professional data recovery lab as this may cost $1500+ for data recovery. -
data was backed so don't have problem with that
but i wan't to use the laptop again, but i can't install any OS since i can't access to the bios to set booting option
how can i reprogram the Bios ? do you have any link where i can find the steps ?

Then, you will have to desolder the BIOS chip and reprogram it using a BIOS programming machine, and most likely only ASUS can do it. -
so i have no chance to resolve it alone
will call asus next week and pay for solving the issue if no one bring a solution before.

Have you tried to locate the battery in the system?
The CMOS battery is connected to the mainboard so you can try to find it to disconnect it in order to clear it.
At least try to do this before calling and it may save you time and money.
