An easy way? Mess with the bios... or even set the bios jumper to clear and leave it there. If you just mess with windows, she might just try to reinstall everything.

Quickly turn it on and off a few dozen times in a row.
Or even easier, look for a 110/230V switch on the power supply, and flick it.

Put the IDE cable backwards.

Then when she finally "gives up" just get back all the important data.
