If you're sure this is what you want to do, open My Computer.
click on c: to highlight/select it
click File
cl Format
You will end up with a totally blank PC.

This one's easy. Just make backups on CD/DVD of everything on your C:\ drive that you don't want to lose. Then, reinstall Windows, and once you get to the screen where all you have to do to install Windows is hit Enter, don't. Instead, delete your C:\ partition. Then, recreate it (make new partition), THEN reinstall Windows on it.

the best to fully format ur hard drive is : attach a second harddrive in ur computer.. move the components of ur drive to 2nd drive... then boot ur computer with sencond harddrive... then identify the different drive of ur harddisk & format them.... after format ur diskdrive, boot the computer with ur drive with xp bootable disk... then install the same window & copy the components frm the 2nd drive....
