What operating system?
If you want to format your hard drive, go to the manufacturer's web site and
download their disk management utilities. A formatting utility will be
included.
If you're using Windows and don't know the manufacturer, check Device
Manager.

To "erase" the drive, try:

format <drive letter>:

e.g. format C:

To boot from CD, you must adjust your BIOS settings (boot sequence) to try
your optical drive first. Of course, you must have a bootable CD to make
this work.
