Try this free utility that securely erases everything :
http://dban.sourceforge.net/
Description :
Darik's Boot and Nuke ("DBAN") is a self-contained boot floppy or CD 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.

if you want to format it without puting a new OS then use killdrive. all you have to do is burn it on a cd or put it on a floppy, boot from it and follow the instuctions.
