You need odin 3.28 to flash recoveries / stock ROMs not custom roms.
I will give you a link with all the files you need.

Hard reset

To do the hard reset you need to reboot into recovery which is what the page the OP mentioned was all about. Often because you've forgotton the pin or pattern.

The method described on that page does not work and perhaps never worked. You need to use adb to reboot.

There is a small set of tools one of Snoop05 has put together to install ADB (Android Debug Bridge) and Fastboot. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979

That contains some USB drivers - not sure if they work as I already had ADB and Fastboot.

Start a command window in the location you installed ADB to (shift + right click on the directory in Windows to select open command window here).

Plug the phone into the computer - usually direct, not via a hub.
It should ask how you want to connect - Kies or UMS. Select Kies, which will start debug mode

in the command window:
adb devices

if nothing is listed, then you may need a driver. Sumsung drivers are available here: http://developer.samsung.com/android/tools-sdks/Samsung-Andorid-USB-Driver-for-Windows

After installing that unplug and reconnect the phone.

adb devices

I'll assume that worked cause otherwise I'm out of ideas.
if there's a device listed then:

adb reboot recovery

the phone will reboot into the recovery menu and you can wipe / reset to factory default.
