    You can try Darik's Boot and Nuke ("DBAN")

    Darik's Boot and Nuke ("DBAN") is a self-contained boot floppy that securely wipes the hard disks of most computers. DBAN will automatically and completely delete the contents of any hard disk that it can detect, which makes it an appropriate utility for bulk or emergency data destruction.

    Ok well the xp disk that I have was a copied version and wasn't retail. Anyways it doesn't give me the option to format anywhere. Why is it so hard to just clear the computer. Harder to get rid of something then installing it. Also this computer does not have a floppy so that is out of the question. But I can make a boot disk.

    You might have to change boot devices in the bios , its so simple really . Go back and look at the guide from bawA, or d/L Ariel's link .
