    reformatting will delete everything.. you will need to instaill windows and start over if that is ur system disk,

    if u dont know how. i would sujest moving the shit on the other hdd but if u have 400-500mb fee thats enough for ur comp to work properly. and u can just install stuff on the other hdd if u need to.
