Red Screen with NOKIA in huge letters is the firmware loading screen (you really shouldnt disconnect at this point).
Thats the point where you can brick your device.
Try again with Lumia Software Recovery Tool .
It can recover even dead devices.

There is an option underneath the picture of the phone.

"My phone does not startup or respond"

​Click that and proceed

Calm down ...
did you hack and install WP10 ?
or were you just trying to reinstall the firmware/OS ?

You might have bricked your device for good. You could try something known as dead flash (look it up on forums or the xda-developers website) using Nokia Product Support Tool for Store. If that doesn't work then I guess walking into Nokia Care would be your only option
