Need to format (clean off?) hard drive but keep XP on it

by kbmoose1 . Updated 17 years, 2 months ago

My daughter has a fairly new desktop which has XP Home installed. She can’t find her OS install disk or her key. She want to sell the desktop since she now has a new laptop. I want to clean all the personal stuff off to avoid ID theft issues, but can’t format the Hard Drive because I can’t reinstall XP unless she finds the disk and key.

Is there a way to do this? Any help would be appreciated.
