I would like to reformat my windows XP Pro version, its not a legal version and i cant find the disk any way to go about reformating with out a disk
 
So you want to get rid of the illegal copy on your computer?

That's what format does. You can use anything from 98 to XP floppy boot disk to format the drive.

Killux: just do fdisk -l and you'll know

hda = entire first disk
hda1= first primary partition of first disk
 
Yes, my bad, /dev/hda1 ... and that is of course if the Windows installation is on the first partition of the first IDE harddrive.

You could also do
Code:
cat /proc/partitions
for a shorter list than fdisk -l :)
