Pardon if there is a topic asking this already(I could not find one). Anyway, I want to reformat my HDD and make it NTFS. How would I go about doing this?

Should I just insert the OS disc and go to the set up?
Thanks
 
If you don't already have an NTFS type primary partition you will need to delete the current one with the Vista installer or a drive partitioning tool. There are some steps for XP for an existing installation where you can cinvert a Fat partition into NTFS there. But for a clean install of Vista the removal of the current and creation of a new primary will see the installer format that for you while the installer is running.
