If the configuration of other computer are same, just go for deletion of your data including confidential files which you do not wish to carry to another computer.
And if you want to delete EVERYTHING... think twice.. if sure, then after backing up your important data, use FORMAT command. It will delete everything from hard disk. You need to install all programs again on your new computer.

You mean you want to put everything from one hard drive to another? Well just copy the information. Burn cds with the info that you want and stuff like that. Then get the other hard drive up and running with windows and just transfer all the stuff that you saved. If you want to delete everything from the other hard drive...all you have to do is reformat it. Thats gonna wipe it clean like a wiper does to a baby's butt!

If you delete everything on your hard drive you won't be able to install it on another computer because you deleted it!

If you are running windows, and want to delete everything on the disk, just go to My Computer, right click on Local Disk (C:), and choose the format option.. Once you do that, you will have the option to format to the file systems FAT, or FAT32 on all windows versions, or NTFS if you are running windows XP. If you have the option to format to NTFS, it would be a VERY good idea compared to FAT or FAT32. FAT and FAT32 don't support compression, or encryption, and NTFS does. so anyways when you choose your file system, just click the format button, and when its done take it to the other computer and put in the fitting data/power cords that come from the motherboard and power source, and then you might have to configure BIOS for the computer to accept the HD. and thats pretty much it.

it would be easier to take your hard drive out of your old computer and take the hard drive out of your new one and take the hard drive you want and put it in your new computer
