    does anyone know where I can d/l a copy of kill.exe which kill everything on an HD? The version I am talking about will allow you to boot up to this floppy and kill what's on the HD within seconds. The one I have takes 10 to 15 mins. I know there is a faster version cause I've used it in the past. I appreciate any help.

    as allready said the fastest way i know will be format /q but that is recoverable to a certain extent otherwise you quickest way is a magnet or hammer!

    The longer it takes the saver it is. you can just format the drive in windows but then you can recover 100% of the data.

    If it only takes a few seconds then it probably just nukes the partition table. With the correct software and a bit of luck you, or the new owner, will be able to recover everything.
