The best way to format your hard disk would be to use a tool like Norton Ghost or Drive Image to make an exact copy of your current hard disk before you format it. Then if you need any files you can get them back from the image (backup.)
I'd recommend this anyway, because you always remember something which you forgot to backup/check AFTER you've done the format.
