  You have to request it from your manufacturer.
  
  All manufacturers will have to provide the recovery discs or full installation discs.

  Windows XP allows self destruct. There are a few methods.
  
  The first method can be done using command prompt.
  
  The second method is to delete all partitions. Note, not format the partition, but delete.
  
  The third method is to anyhow play with the registry.
  
  Lastly, to really destroy it, put a magnet near your computer. This is completely destructive.
