If you have the windows install disc, you can insert it, restart your computer and press any key when it tells you to. This will boot from the DVD and enter the Windows Setup. From there, it will show you a list of partitions on your hard drive before you install windows. Choose the partition on which Vista is installed and click "Delete" under advanced options. The partition will be formatted. If you want to install a fresh copy of Windows Vista, you can do so now. If not, exit windows setup and install whatever OS you want to use. (Make sure you BACK UP your files before formatting - once you format the partition, you can NEVER get the files back.)

There's no such thing as Windows XP format or Windows Vista format. You should check however if your external hard drive uses an NTFS or FAT32 partition table. You can see that by right-clicking the drive (C, D, E, ..) and clicking properties. If it uses NTFS it will be no problem for Vista. If it's FAT32, then google for a way to convert it to NTFS. No big deal.
