Go to the manufacturer's website of your hard drive.  They will have a
little program to wipe out your specific hard drive.  You should down load
it to a floppy disk.  It uses the old operating system --DOS.  Boot up your
computer from the floppy drive and you will then be in the program.  It will
ask if you want to write all zeros to the hard drive.  Say "yes".  The
program will then write zeros to every byte on your hard drive.  You will
end up with a virgin drive.
