I have a hp laptop and i have installed windows 10 on it. Since my laptop became slow and it became messy. i want to do a clean install. My question is will it format disks other than c. i have 1 TB hard disk and i have made 2 drives from it(E and F). i have my stuff on that drive will it be erased while i install windows 10 creators update?

No, it will not.

Your clean install is done on C drive and affects only C drive.
Other drives/partitions remain untouched.

Do I need to install driver again manually?

I don't believe so.
I have had several clean install of Windows 10. Never had to reinstall or update the drivers.

Either way, no matter what, you NEED to create a backup before doing this. Is your data critical to you? If so then create a BACKUP on external media. Anything can happen when doing this and, 9 out of 10 times it'll be fine, it's better to be safe than blaming Windows for a hard drive error.
