You may need to boot directly from a CD or even a boot disk.
Make sure that your CMOS settings are set to boot from your CD drive first, before trying to boot from the hard drive.
Once you've booted from a setup CD, you should be able to:
A) format your hard drive
and/or
B) Install a new OS over the old one.

ok if you have the new hard drive in with a windows os on all you do is this put the old hard drive in and make it the slave drive on the back of the hard drive your see a jumper then you put that on the the slave pin then u connect the data cable to it that is connected to the new hard drive then boot up the pc

disconnect all your other harddisks, turn on computer and then format that drive.
