If it always hang when format, then try to make sure that your RAM is up to 2GB.......... try the installation with windows 7 or XP and see if it will format........ if its still hanging maybe you should try a replacement of harddisk...........
You can always format the Hard drive with a bootable DOS from CD-ROM within a Minute.
Download the DOS and burn it in a CD and boot fro the CD-ROM and format the drive using Fdisk command.
Here is the link for more deatils on FDISK Command

Check the hard drive for Bad Sector as your system hangs during format.
Google for Bad sector removal tools and try if it can repair.otherwise replace the Hard drive.
Sometimes, System hangs due to over heating of CPU as CPU fan not working properly or Dust and Dirt contamination always occur.Get your PC clean too with an Air blower.
Try it again.... when installing an OS it can hang for a while... especially if it is a version of windows... if you wait two hours and no screen change then your hard drive is probably shot...
