Use the original windows CD you got with the computer to do a full format of the hard drive. Reinstall windows. Profit.

exactly... but I'm not sure what the market is like for a nearly decade old computer. I've upgraded my computer entirely 4 times since then.

it is worth between 50 and 100

you can run the full recover or if it is xp you can go to users create a new user
then log in using new user
delete the user you had
it is faster but it leaves all your programs on it but none of your personal data
