Wipe hard drive, keep OS

    Hi guys.

    Selling my Dell XPS on adverts.

    I want to wipe the hard drive before selling but the discs I have are Vista Service Pack 1 and Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade and I can't do a clean install with the upgrade cd, and hardly want to reinstall the two of them.

    Is there a way to wipe the drive of any personal information and files but keep the OS files? I mean, a way that isn't manual, something more secure.
