I've found that 7.62, as launched from an M1, is an adequate solution, also. |

Yes, but I need the computer intact afterwards.

Unhook everything but the CDrom and the HD you want to format. then throw in your XP disk in the CDrom and power it up andwindows should walk you right through it. NOTE: make sure it is the only drive in there. I wiped the wrong HD a few years back. hope that helps |

This is reformatting, not wiping. Totally different, and not what i'm looking for. |

I didn't say shoot the computer, remove the hard drive and destroy it, and put in a new one. That exceeds DOD standards, and a new quality HD will run you the cost of super-duper amazing software that still isn't as fool proof as a 5.56 or any round to the hard drive. |

You're welcome, the only software I've on the list is "Kill Disk" but even then I only used the free one, and that one isn't DoD compliant. |

Actually, you can break a CD, DVD, or HD into as many pieces as you would like, and the data can still be recovered by some folks. Not that I'm worried about those folks, I just want to sell the computer and not worry about some turd getting copies of all my stuff off the HD. |

Eraser utilizes the Guttmann, Pseudorandom Data, and US DoD 5220-22.M methods of secure data deletion, and its free.

WDClear if you can find it. Just run a variety and there won't be any reasonable way to get data off of it.
note I said reasonable, this problem can be solved by a flux in the time/money continuum |
