I would recommend you do NOT sell the computer with Windows still installed on it.

It is likey that there is still a lot of personal data floating around on your harddrive.

I know its paranoid, but better safe than sorry. Google will be able to help you with removing all the data from your harddrive :)

Good luck with the sale.

Nothing to worry about.

I just freshly installed windows xp just for the sale. Therefore there is nothing personal in the computer.

I installed linux before.

Thanks

You know that formatting your hardrive dosen't actually "wipe" it right?

Yes I know.

A professional can bring back erased data from harddrive even after its being reformat, but there was nothing important or personal in that computer when I used it.
