You need a stand-alone copy of windows to format. If you do it with one that came installed on another machine you will have 30 days to enter a registration code (which you wont have) then it will lock you out of windows and you'll end up having to get a stand-alone copy anyway.

Could I use another Compaq Presario installation disc (That's what I am formatting)? I don't have the disc for this one.



Ok, first, short answer, no. Unless of course it is the same model, and you have the certificate of authenticity on your case.

Otherwise, tell me your model number, and I can look s*** up and come up with a drivers disk.

uh guys its disk not disc



Lol, what a c***wit.

Especially as you claim to be from the UK, you should know that in British English, "disc" is more common than "disk".
