Windows XP does have many drivers built in .
If the system is that old it will try to load generic drivers, but if it's successful then the hardware should work ok.

Format is a command that is in Windows.
Open My Computer
cl c: (the hard drive, it will become highlighted)
cl File
cl Format
Be sure this is what you want to do before proceeding.
