Google the word, Darik's Boot and Nuke or get it here, read the instructions too. It's Free.

Killdisk will do it for you, but data can still be recovered from the hard drive. If you want to securely wipe the drive, use paragon Disk Wiper http://www.disk-wiper.com/

OK, I'll tell you, I dont know how to wipe it completly, hwoever, i do know how to wipe everything but Windows. Insert your CD then shut down, next boot up from your CD (it will ask you) and reinstall Windows, tell it to wipe your hard drive, something weired happened to mine, all the stuff was still there but it wasnt installed, so i just delted it.

Look up D-Ban, download the bootable ISO. Boot it up and choose your deletion method.
