Could you please explain more? Do you want to format the hard disk and remove Win XP or just format a partition that doesn't have XP installed?

If you're installing xp on it again, change the boot sequence to boot from CD inyour BIOS and boot up with your win xp cd, and just follow the steps it brings up.
