Make ur Disk slave to some other computer.
Do a full format of ur C:\drive from there.
Plug ur HD back to ur PC. and Try again.
I am not 100% sure though.
Do at ur own risk. :d .
Anyone else having some idea?

Run a memtest and check hard disk cables. Also, run file system checks in both linux and windows.
