kill.exe

does anyone know where I can d/l a copy of kill.exe which kill everything on an HD? The version I am talking about will allow you to boot up to this floppy and kill what's on the HD within seconds. The one I have takes 10 to 15 mins. I know there is a faster version cause I've used it in the past. I appreciate any help.

Delpart does a pretty quick job too - it simply deletes partitions. You have to have a bootable floppy already, you just copy delpart.exe onto it.

The kill disk type applications kill the info on the drives and not the drives themselves. So yes, you'll be good to go with a new installation.
