Sure you can re-format a laptop just like a desktop. Use the restore disks. And after you're done re-installing Windows, I strongly recommend getting Trend Micro Anti Spyware to prevent that problem in the future. That virus probably spread on your network. If you want to make sure you'll never get another virus, you could buy a Mac or install Linux (for free) on the laptop. Installing Linux would give you the option to format your laptop plus its a great operating system which can run Windows programs.
