a quick google gave me this

And this

Format:
Close all applications, turn the phone off and take out the battery. Put it back in after a couple of seconds. Open the Communicator. As soon as the blue NOKIA text disappears (the screen will become completely white), press Ctrl+Shift+F. After this you will get a message whether or not to format the phone. Press the top command-button on the right side of the screen to format the 9500, the bottom command-button to continue booting normally.

To completely get rid of all additional installed programs, delete the entire System folder on drive D: (your MMC card). If you cannot see the system folder in File Manager, switch it on by selecting "Tools"-"Settings" from the Filemanager menu and set "Show system directory" to "Yes".

Reinstall:
You don't have to reinstall the standard software since it is located in ROM. After the format, all your programs (Word, Sheet etc) are still there. You probably do need to reinstall all third party applications.
