Formatting will be done automatically. Look for choices about keeping or deleting partitions. Drivers are installed later on in the install. Windows does a good job on them and you may not need to get any drivers from another source. |

| | Deal with what specifically?? If it's a new drive, it will have no partitions. You'd have to make at least one for C during the installation. More if you choose to. Look for "drive options, advanced" or words to that effect. |
