to reformat without the recovery cd, you will need to have a recovery option during boot up. this is typical on a HP/Compaq desktop. if you do not have the recovery cd's or a recovery partion, you will lose every thing on your hard drive and it would be a format not a re-format

you can reformat but you will need the cd to reinstall windows xp. FORMATTING will delete everything on your disk (partition).
