Does any one know a virus called "Disk Killer" ?

My IBM PC is seriously being affected by this unknown virus.
The system hung and can't be brought up by any means.
I tried to use firmware to re-format the hard disk.
The formatting completed without any error message but
the computer still does not work.

I need help to remove or kill this virus.
