Sure... go to the Utilities folder on your Hard Drive and go to Disk Utility. Click on it to open it and get it running. Your Hard Drive should show up on the left hand side .. make sure you have show connected drives turned on under Finder Preferences. Click on the drive/volume then click on Erase and... thats it

( hope u did a backup of your hard drive first)
