We throw to much stuff away today and as this is a money saving website we should be trying to save money or save other people money.

The boot disk option then followed by reinstalling the OS is the way to go. Most people wouldn't want to get your data from a formatted harddrive, damaging the disk is just as bad as giving the pc to someone without wiping it in my book!
