Default formatting xbox HD

If I format the hard drive on an xbox using the xbox option, what do I need to do to set it back up to use again. Or is there a better way to clear out the hard drive and start over? The xbox is freezing up and I think it is because the hard drive is full.

Thanks

i doubt it has to do with the hdd being full. i am not sure i follow you on the format part though, never knew there was a format option in there...is it a 360?

So you're xbox is singing Spice Girls songs.
The truth is, we need more information about your situation.
The spice girls were right. You've got to give before you can take.

More information:

It is not my xbox - it belongs to a friend's son. Not a 360.
He claims the hard drive is full (I have yet to see the system) and I was wondering if there is a simple way to format the hd and start over. I found an article on Microsoft about formatting the hd, but upon further review it pertains to 360 only. The symptoms are random freezing and no space to save new game files.

So, is there a way to clean it out and have it set back up as it was from original? Or what is the best option.

Thanks
