Run a boot disk and then boot from that disk that you insert into the A: drive.

This will be a bootable A:\ disk.

Then just format the C:\ drive.

You are running windows. It won't boot a drive that it's currently running under.

Failing that, get a version of Ubuntu, boot from CD and then format like so.
