Question Easiest way to clean out a computer

I just got a new computer and I am giving my old (2 years) Dell to my kids. I want to clean out the hard drive from all the old virus's, spyware, and crap my kids got prior to giving it to them. I also think the hard drive is going. I'm hearing a lot of buzzing and rattling when it spins. Should I just pitch the old one, install a new drive and reload Windows XP. Is it that simple or am I missing something.
