The same as you'd do with a desktop computer.
I assume by reformat you also mean to reinstall Windows - if so the easiest way is to boot from your Windows CD. You'll select to do a new installation, and when it brings up your partition table, you will delete the existing partition, and install windows to the "unformatted space". Windows will then format and partition the hard disk and install a fresh copy of windows.
