If you formatted your hard drive incorrectly then you'll need to find some way to re-format the drive in an NTFS file system. It also has to be a non-dynamic disk. Sometimes an incorrect format can result in the deletion or misplacement of several drive sectors. It happened to me once, and there's not much you'll be able to do about the drive if it's corrupted.
One of the easiest ways to re-format your C Drive correctly without connecting the drive externally to another device in order to format from the disk management tool of that other computer's Windows operating system, is to simply turn on your computer, open the optical drive, insert your Windows instillation disk (I hope you haven't lost it), proceed with the set-up instructions as you would until the Windows Installer prompts you to select the drive you want to install onto.
This is the point where you'll have a few options to choose from. Select the "Format" option. All you have to do is ensure the file system to be NTFS, the capacity of the drive at default, the volume label to be C for C:\ Drive and the allocation size to be default. If this still doesn't work than the drive is corrupted probably (or at least in my experience). If you've completely lost your disk, find another PC and try to use that to download a trial setup installer for Windows and then either burn that to a disk (hoping you've still got your Windows box with the PKey on it) or copy the iso (basically a disk image file) to a USB. Plug in the USB and mash the F12 button, or whatever button allows you to select a boot-device.
Please explain in more detail next time, why you formatted your PC and whether or not you were prompted with a motherboard error message leading you to think M/B drivers needed to be re-installed. This can seriously help, as I may have just written a bunch of sh*t for no reason if it's not the suitable solution to this issue.
