To format your hard drive (c):

My Computer > Right Click (on drive 'c') > Format. Then you can chose format options. You probably want a full format

To re-install windows:

Put CD ROM in CD drive > When you switch your computer on, press the key which is 'Boot from CD Drive' (usually F2)

Follow the on screen instructions to install windows

Good Luck!
