Hi,

I am trying to install osx on my macbook (13") without success. I dont know whats the problem but macbook doesn't see dvd with osx. I tried to format disk but the problem still exist. I was able to install windows vista without a problem. When i insert osx in a macbook nothing happens. After several seconds folder with question mark appears and thats it. it looks like osx doesn't see start up disk. I tried pressing letter C but still nothing appears on the screen. Any help greatly appreciated.

Macbook 13"
2.0 ghz core 2 duo
1gb ram
QUOTE Thanks

when you are turning on your computer. hold down the 'option' key.
you should be presented with the option to boot to either your harddrive or your dvd in the drive.
