What OS are you using Tim?
If it is Windows, you should just be able to put the disc in, boot from CD, and then follow the prompts to re-format.

Look up http://www.TomsHardware.com
Web site is primarily for finding hardware that works well together.
It also has a wealth of info about software.
Have a look at it.
Try http://www.DriverGuide.com for help with finding drivers for your system.
http://www.WebAttack.com for freeware.
If your system is like mine it probably needs some upgrades.
Good luck!
