How do you format system drive?
The question is a bit vague. You need to specifiy what you are trying to do and what operating system you are using. For instance, if you are at a command prompt in DOS or Windows you could type in FORMAT C: /S and the drive designated by the C: (c drive) would be formatted and bootable system files would be added (/S). Please be more specific when you re-ask your question.

What is the proper way to reformat a hard drive?
Reformat the hard drive like you would any other drive. If you want to remove the partition table and create a new one, or it is a new drive, then boot your system using a win98 bootable disk then type Fdisk hit enter. Then do what you want in FDisk. Otherwise skip to the next step. If you are in DOS, just do Format and then the drive letter, such as: Format C: If you want to create it as a bootable drive, make sure the drive is marked as Active in Fdisk (or whatever partition manager you use) and then do Format /s C: The /s means to install the OS loader files. Or, if you install or reinstall Windows, you should be given the options to clear the drive and/or partition and format it.

If you did format for your windows does everything on the computer will gone?
The answer for this would be YES and also No... It would be YES if you format the whole hard disk.. When u format the hard disk completely all the information in it would be erased and u may have to partition it again before installing the Windows(OS).... It would be NO if you formatted only the C: in the system.. The Windows or any OS would by default be stored in C: only, so if u wanna get rid of the existing OS and install a new one, then formatting the C: only would be more then enough..In this way the files, folders etc. in other drives would not be erased... Note : If u format the C: drive alone also the application softwares(office, photoshop, autocad, etc...) would be erased..
