You'll need to use the installation CDs that were provided when you first got the laptop. One of them should be a Windows Installation or "restore" disk, if you boot up with that in your laptop you should be able to perform a format and re-install windows.
However, you will lose everything on the laptop at the moment- documents, bookmarks, e-mails, everything.
