Why'd you format the HDD in a linux filesystem if you didn't know/don't plan on using linux?

if you converted any windows drive into an linux pertition then windows wont recognise that drive. it would be best if you re-partition your hard drive by using fdisk. (fdisk is a DOS operated program, you could get it from win98 CD-Rom.)
