Insert you're OS(XP,Vista or 7) CD in and let it run,its pretty straight forward.I've never reformatted on my Win7 Laptop but I do know that for XP, after clicking Next non-stop it will bring you to a "BIOS-style" menu,from there its pretty straight forward. Just remember to Delete the Partition when they'll give you the option.
