[QUOTE="Juan Largo, post: 681051, member: 47345"] When you say "wipe out" your hard drive, do you just want to reuse the hard drive, or do you want to erase your data so completely that nobody can ever read it again (like you're going to sell the notebook to somebody else)? If it's the second option, then reformatting won't be nearly enough. You want to nuke it instead. There are a number of programs that do that, like this one: [url]http://dban.sourceforge.net/[/url] Let us know. [/QUOTE]
