Resetting Old Computer

Alright. My younger brother came home with 2 old computers that he got from his school's IT Room. They've upgraded 4 times since they last used these, and were going to throw them out. My desktop recently fell to shit, so he got these as a replacement. Good natured kid.
However. These computers are old and run like shit. While I wait for parts to come in for my current desktop, I plan to fiddle around with these. Maybe replace some of the old parts, take it apart and put it back together, etc.
Basically, I wan't to know what the safest and easiest route to clearing the Hard Drive is. Maybe even turn off some of the start up processes? The computer is set up to revert to a set point every time it reboots. Anything installed or downloaded is gone. I want to get rid of this, as well as completely wipe the hard drive. Any help?
I'm running Windows 7 and I do not have the Admin Password. Pic related. It's a Lenovo Thinkpad T400.
