Windows 8.1 installer can't find find HDD

So I wanted to do a clean install of my Windows 8.1 so I formatted my :C (with windows 7 on it) to do so, but i accidentally also formatted the 100 MB of reserved system partition and so the windows 8.1 setup can't find my :C when i come to the part when windows 8.1 setup asks on which drive you want to install it it doesn't show any drives. However I do find my hard drive with partition wizard.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance,
Misa

P.S. if you have anymore questions please ask

in setup part where it ask to choose where to install, you need to choose advanced partition choice, create a partition then format and try again.
