Honestly, I only tried to delete info from the hard drive and keep a computer 1 time. There was an option to re-write over it 35 times. It was years ago and so I don't know if I am using the correct terminology. Btw, it was a mac and I think it worked.

How do I delete/clean out a computer memory completely?
99 I'm not sure you want to say, "completely" as there are different kinds of mem, some of permanent value which you can't get along without
However can understand your frustration with the nasty kind. One of these days I'm gonna have my sons clean out mine

@anonymously99,
It isn't something you should try to do without previous experience and hands on guidance from someone who does.
Take it to a local computer store and pay to have them do it for you. Doing so means you'll be without a computer for just a few days rather than permanently due to a costly mistake.

I want to wipe clean a computer.
You should be much more clear about what you are asking about. Your terminology implies you want the result to be a completely blank hard drive without an operating system. This can be achieved by reformatting the hard drive and will require reinstallation of the operating system and all software programs and backed up data files. It is a long process and can take up to a week to complete.
