Decided to remove HDD, now I need a way to clean it.???
IDE by the way.
You miss the point, the HDD is out of the PC and laid on the desk in front of me,I need a way to wipe it.
Hello wysiwyg49 and welcome to the forums
If you want to wipe the hard drive, reconnect it and then boot from your Windows DVD and install Windows again, making sure that you format the drive when asked.
If you don't have a Windows DVD, then you could use DBAN to wipe the drive:

Won't allow the Windows DVD, over rides it.
Downloaded DBAN to CD still no joy, does nothing.
It seems to block anything from the DVD drive
Thanx for replies, problem solved.
