    Most OS Install discs have the ability to format your computer easily, if you just want to format it with out a OS disc, download and burn UBCD. UBCD is a formating/fixing tool disc that will allow you to format your HDD or try to fix the os installed.

    For Windows / Linux
    1) Turn on the computer
    2) Insert the OS disc into your dvd/cd drive
    3) When computer is done booting from OS disc, select the install option(this will format the hard drive removing all previous data.
    4) follow on screen instructions
