If the your computer has an unusual CLICKING NOISE chances are the HDD has failed. They usually start at about $80, installation can be much more DEPENDING on the laptop.
If the HDD tests good, then more info would be useful. Are you using restore CDS, a recovery partition, or a windows CD? Was the computer having PROBLEMS prior to formatting? Where are your drivers located?
A chkdsk/r from the command line shouldn't hurt either.
