wiping partitions from hard drive

Question

I've tried using Computer Management to remove the partitions from a hard drive, but there are no options for them (other than E:). Is there a way to enable options to remove the partitions?

I'm aware of DBAN, and read up on cipher but don't know what partitions are being identified here.

I use and love GParted to complete such partition tasks. "GParted is a free partition editor for graphically managing your disk partitions." http://gparted.sourceforge.net/

Good old Disk Part works like a champ. Just Google around for instructions. It's found on all versions of Windows. Careful tho ... it can wreck things if the user is not careful.

I use the free(Home) version EaseUS, it is easy to use and has never failed me.
