It may not be a very cost effective upgrade to install Windows Vista on such an old computer.

Do you have to format your hard disk to install new windows?
You dont have to format the drive to install windows. But it is a good idea. If you try to install windows onto a drive which already has windows on it (working or non-working) it will probably refuse to continue instead preferring to attempt to fix the existing install. You can get around this by renaming or deleting the original windows folder
