I need to wipe my whole hard drive clean as can be. My whole system is corrupted and I need to start over from scratch.

Either boot up on diskette and use FDisk (which will clean off your entire drive and leave it completely blank with no drives at all.
Or
Use the Windows install disk which has an easy-to-walk-through wizard to delete and recreate a partition.
OR
if you are using a restore CD from the computer maker's company it will do it for you. (you MAY have to tell it to start from scratch.

Have Fun! Remember to save you MP3s!
