HELP win 7 install problems

Hello today i went to boot up my pc and got a boot mgr is missing message, i tried using the win7 disc to repair it to no hope so i just decided i was going to re install windows. I wiped my hard drive and when it comes to the windows page to install i select my hard drive (wiped),(only have one hard drive) it comes up with setup was unable to create a new system partition or locate an existing system partition. See the setup logs for more information.

Any help

regards

What did you wipe the drive with?

Does the installation disc give an option to format? If so, use that.
