1. My OS came already installed on my system hard drive. How is it possible to wipe the drive and reinstall it?

2. Disk formatting is taking a long time. Its stuck with like a little tiny bit left to load. How long does it ususally take? I am changing the file system from FAT32 to NTFS and it is an older hard drive.
