SOLVED Donating Vista Business Laptop-want to wipe but dont have admin password.

[aceeverytimr]

Hi My local charity will take my old Samsung, Vista Business laptop.

I can access Windows but not as an administrator.

I want to wipe the laptop before giving it away.


I have tried the F4 and F8 routes on switching on, but dont get offered the Repair option.


I dont have sufficient rights to use Computer Manager to reformat the disk.


How can I prepare the laptop for donation please?


Thanks
