Start|Control Panel|Administrative Tools|Computer Management will take you an area to see what you have. I cannot guarantee this is perfect
If you are going to 'format' I understand fdisk is a better option(but only if you have the FULL Operating system install disc and not just the recovery that is shipped with most models)
I still think you should try the options I mentioned above(with waht Lenny suggested for safe mode etc). It will save you the reinstall of all your stuff.
