I need to uninstall Vista and then reinstall it. I have Ubuntu so I was going to use Gparted and either delete the partition or reformat it. My problem is that I don't know if I need to format it to a file system or if Vista will automatically the unused space NTFS. And if it doesn't autmatically make it NTFS do I need it to be, because it doesn't give me that option in Gparted, only some other options, the closest I could find was fat32.

So my big question is do I just delete the partition and install Vista on unused disk space or reformat to a certain file system.
