How to wipe out everything on computer for reinstallation of Windows 7
I have a dell desktop and i have the windows 7 reinstallation CD. The few times i have reinstalled it, i just place the CD in and reinstalled it. However... each time i do this, i go check my C drive and i thing see everything wasn't deleted.
For example, my computer has 500GB. But of course its only 451GB because of the drivers etc. Well i just reinstalled windows and i see 388GB free of 451GB, which meant i still had stuff from last time that wasn't deleted... well its deleted but i read this is b/c those files are stored in those folders etc.
Can someone teach me how to completely delete everything so my computer would be like brand new? I know if everything is deleted, it would be something like 440GB free of 451GB. And yes i saved everything onto a usb drive. At the moment, my computer is reinstalled but of course it wasn't completely wiped out.
Thanks.
