b4 reformatting that often, you suggest it's a drive problem. Try running a
FULL scan of the drives b4 re-formatting.
There just may be too many bad sectors on the drive[s] to make formatting of
any use.

What, specifically, do you mean by "jam?" I'm afraid that the term
makes no sense in the context of computers, unless you're talking about
a CD drive's tray not ejecting or retracting properly.
What specific error messages do you get? What do your system event logs
report? What changes, if any, did you make to the computer's hardware
or software configuration immediately prior to the onset of the problem?
What specific troubleshooting steps have you already taken, and what
were the results of each?
No one can help if you don't provide at least a modicum of information.
