Solved Complete HD wipe?

[drmax]

Good morning all. Some yrs ago I was instructed from here (wonderful helpful place btw) how to completely wipe my HD as I thought I may have had infection that just a regular reinstall of Windows would not have worked. It's like 3 yrs later and I want to do the same thing. I can't find my old post. Could someone plz direct me to or link me to instructions of joe to perform a full wipe of hard drive please? Thank you kindly. Dm
