It seems sectors on your hard drive have failed. I would recommend you buy a new hard drive, and re-try installing your operating system. Unfortunately, bad sectors/blocks cannot be repaired, as a hard drive is a large magnet.. any tampering could possibly do more damage.

If you have the machine up and running, i would suggest you use scan disk, or some built in windows repair application. You can go to Start->Programs->Accessories->System Tools and see what is available, i do not remember off hand as i am a Linux user.

You still have space taken on your HD after formmating how do you get rid of it?

There are two possibilities. Once a "bad block" is detected the disk marks that bad block as unusable and reformatting will not make it available. A bad block fails to pass the read/write test and will do you no good. It's also possible that there are no bad blocks but that you or some application have configured a "partition" on the disk. A partition is a section of the disk that has been classified as "something else", can be treated as a totally separate disk drive even though it's part of the same hardware.
