If you want format individual drive then you can log in the DOS mode and type as

C:/ format d:

else
you can use the bootable disk and during bootup u can do the same for C: drive

..Yes obiviously you will loose entire data in that formated drive..

Hey, wats ur age ?
I learnt formatting on my school's comp in 5th std.

Type, format C: in the dos command (boot into or restart into)

Yes u will lose almost all data on it (some data recovery software retrieves info)
