If you reformatted your hard disk you probably have a virus in your OS itself. If you really want to start form scratch though you need to remove the partition, shut down, make sure it is gone and then repartition the the hard drive and then reinstall the the OS. If you still have it after that then your OS is likely infected.

"Disinfecting boot sector viruses. Boot sector repair is best accomplished by the use of antivirus software. Because some boot sector viruses encrypt the MBR, improper removal can result in a drive that is inaccessible. However, if you are certain the virus has only affected the boot sector and is not an encrypting virus, the DOS SYS command can be used to restore the first sector. Additionally, the DOS LABEL command can be used to restore a damaged volume label and FDISK /MBR will replace the MBR. None of these methods is recommended, however. Antivirus software remains the best tool for cleanly and accuarately removing boot sector viruses with minimal threat to data and files."

could be you need to do a low level format of your drive ... either that or just get a new drive .... if after a new drive you're still having the same problem it's on your install disk

If you formatted your hard drive, there shouldn't be ANYTHING there. It may not be a virus. Have you considered a hardware problem?
