Windows XP Media Center Question
#3
It likely came with a hidden partition, which would be the reason there are no install disks. The website for the manufacturer will have the key combination to access the hidden partition at startup for that machine, to take it back to the original sale condition.

There are dozens of programs that will do a secure erase of the hard drive. This is an example. http://www.download.com/Blowfish-Advance...33570.html

Once you verify it has a hidden partition, use a secure erase program (only on the active partition) and then do a reinstall.
