Depending on your OS / PC manufacturer, you may have to manually reformat and reload windows. Most new PC's such as HP, Dell, Packard Bell etc. have a "System Restore" function built in, whereby you reboot the PC, press a button (usually F10 - depends on PC make) and it will do it all for you  (reformat and reload). For others, you can create a boot CD or floppy, from which you can then format the disk and use it to load windows again. (AFAIK, XP on a CD uses the same CD as the boot disk and the OS loading CD). Don't forget that you will lose EVERYTING when you reformat so do make sure to backup files.
