want to sell my laptop but being a poker player i have all kinds of programs and such on it and that probably poses some sort of security risk when i resell it. is there a way to erase ALL history of me on the hard drive? am i being paranoid and will just removing all programs be enough?
I would not have nuked the second partition if there was one. The partition where it comes with d:/recovery where you can reinstall windows from the hd. Other than that, yeah, nuke it all. Not a big deal if you did nuke that partition though.
