[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 994176, member: 56379"] You don't even need to drag the files to the trash. The "overwrite" of the hard drive will write-over all of your files...erasing them completely. You can do a 1x, 7x, or 35x overwrite. Then use the install disk to install the OS. By the way...you have to boot with the install disk to do the overwrite. - Nick [/QUOTE]
