Want to remove most of the info on old laptop without a restore

I finally have everything copied to the new (November) laptop from the old one. It's taken me this long to buy and install my new family tree program and transfer the info over. I also double checked to make sure I had everything else copied and backed up. Now I want to take most everything off the old laptop, which the backlight on the monitor died on, and give it to DD as a back up computer at their house as thiers is on it's last legs and is needed for college homework. My old one works as long as there is an external monitor so will do for them until they can afford a new one.

So, please tell me how to remove stuff without doing a restore, as I'm not sure it would survive that way.

You people are great here, so I know someone can help. It's always appreciated.
