recovery disk assistant work on windows or how can i install mac os back. I don't own any other macs and i don't have a super drive. I need to make an usb to install mac again but i don't know how to do it. Please help. Thanks.

Press Alt key while your Mac is starting to see your volumes, and select Macintosh HD to start into OS X.

If you don't see it, press Command, Option and R keys while your Mac is starting and reinstall OS X on the OS X partition. You won't lose any file reinstalling OS X
