Need a bit of help here regarding PC's..I have an old Gateway, that is is decent shape, but has all the information on the hard drive. I need to 'wipe it"... "write zero's the HD ":dontknow:
What is the best way to do this, re-load it and take it to work...for the fellas to use.
Thanks for any info...I forgot how too do this...or if this Is the best way to erase all info on it currently.:dontknow: short of a hammer and a garden hose...
Also... are there any other uses for an old PC if I decided to not take it to work... Pull the HD, and use it for a portable HD, with the our PC loaded on it making it ideal for the Hurricane kit.:dontknow:
The computer run's fine...... has the following...
Pentium III
Running Windows Xp OS
Nvidia G-force III graphics card
384mb ram
Intel 8280 1 BA bus Master IDE
CD- RW 8X4X32
Mitsumi Cd Rom
30 gig HD
