Formatting with Windows XP disk

I have been hit by a bunch of spayware and trojans lately and my pc is all messed 
up. This all happened while nortons and mcafee were running. I am wanting to format 
my hard drive and start over. When I load my pc from the cd drive with my windows 
xp home disk it goes to the blue screen with white letters that says Windows Setup 
and then it freezes from there. It will not load and I cant do anything from this 
point.

So does anyone know why it is freezing up at that point. 

Or is there another way to format my hard drive without the windows disk in the cd 
drive?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks
Scott
