Did you do a full reformat (not quick reformat) and install Windows on the new drive? I saw a similar error message when I tried to shortcut my latest OS install.

Use a boot floppy and fdisk to delete all partitions on the drive, then reboot with the floppy and create the partitions you want. Then format c:, go get something to snack on, and proceed with winders install.
