Well, your question is not clear to me. Can you post it in more detail?

But I think you wanna delete WINDOWS and all it's components? So first of all backup all the files and then download FREEDOS (an open source DOS) from the link below:-

and then format the partition with windows on it.

If this is not what you are looking for, then tell me.
