How to wipe out everything on computer for reinstallation of Windows 7

After 'custom' follow the instructions closely. There are different options to go with. If you are POSITIVE you have the right drive/partition selected go with delete then create it again by following the guided setup.

I did. I typed 0. Or am i suppose to type #0? That was the only one that had 465gb.

This thread is getting very confusing. Why are you trying to do diskpart? I don't get it.

I remember this part. All i did was choose the partition with the biggest GB space. It was the one with 400 something gb.

So at this point was i suppose to delete a partiton?

Im trying to get to diskpart because someone told me thats what i need to do to erase everything on computer and wipe it before clean install. Its right here.

I have never done that before.

You don't need to use Diskpart to wipe everything out.

You can wipe everything out during the installation by deleting all partitions----if that is what you truly want to do.

How about posting a screenshot of your disk management window maximized like this,

So right now what is the best option. Just reinstall it again? If i just delete the old windows folder... that wouldn't make it as clean right?

sonic... I have no idea. Is that what i need to do? What i want right now is to clean my computer and wipe it fully. Is deleting the partition then what i need to do? I remembered there was 3 or 4 partititions. So you want me to delete all of them? Or just leave the big one out? Are you 100% sure i can delete it? When i was at the screen... all i remembered was it told me to pick one and thats it.
