Ok, I'm going to use the free downloaded program 'Dariks Boot and Nuke' to wipe out my PC , however I'm being cautious and have a few questions.
1. How long does the process take ? Some people say days others say hours or even minutes.
2. I may sell the Tower on or Store it for emergency use (I haven't decided yet), how would I go about re-installing windows (since everyone tells me the program practically renders your PC a blank slate)
3. If someone could give me a general run through of what I'll have to do i'd be grateful.
I'm not a very computer savvy person, so I may ask more questions , ok.
Just re-format your hard drive and install windows using a windows setup installation CD. Make sure you have the drivers of your hardware on hand ready after you install windows.
If you have any questions google is your best friend.
