basically reformating means wiping everything off and re-installing windows. well if you for the windows CD, simpy pop it in the drive and it will take care of the rest. you usually get an option of formating first with windows 2000 or xp.

The CDROM must be set as the first boot device. you can change this in the bios if need be.
