Boil it down.
If your drive letters that your music and movies were on were on the same drive (physical) that means your drive was partitioned. If so you could have inadvertently deleted the partition table when you reformated. But that's not necessarily what you did. If you still see the drive letters in Windows you should be ok. (as least as far as your data goes).
Virus wise you did the right thing re-format. But you don't want your new OS to boot and touch a infected drive letter otherwise you could infect it all over again.
That's why some are saying you need to boot with a Live disc an scan with AV your data drive letters. If these are physically different drives I'd just unplug them when the machine is off. Boot into my newly installed OS and download and install AV. Shut the computer off again; re-connect the drives. Turn it back on then run AV from your OS.

If your files were corrupted, and you already re-formatted, then you are not going to be getting those movies and music back without paying quite a lot of a money for a data restoration professional to take a look at the drive.

You said your files were stored on a drive separate from the one you reformatted, so this should be relatively easy.
First, download and create the Ultamite Boot CD for Windows: http://www.ubcd4win.com/ Boot into the CD and use an included anti-virus program to scan D:\ and E:\. (Make sure you update first). If everything is clean, then just reinstall Windows on the C drive and you should be good to go. If not, then remove any viruses it finds and scan again to make sure everything is clean. Once it is, just reinstall Windows and you should be able to access your files.
