Default Clean Installation

Hi
Sorry to double post but this might be the better forum

Just updated from XP Pro to Ultimate, I thought that when I booted from the
Vista disk it would do the same as XP, that is I could format the drive and
the install on a clean drive, but it just installed and kept my XP in
windows.old.
I have deleted windows.old as it was using to much space, as there does not
seem to be a format in Vista whats the best way to format then install
Vista, do I boot off my XP disk and format then take it out and boot from
Vista or is there a better way

Thanks
