Oh my...
Well, you can either:
A) In DOS, fdisk and format the drive.
or
B) Use the utility disk that came with your hard drive.
Honestly, how can Tux be your hero if you forget how to do this? Have you even touched Linux before?

I think you can boot off the windows cd. Then just do FDISK from there.
