hi people..
i have been given a macbook pro with a dead hard drive, (computer was dropped)
have ordered a new hard drive for it which has come..
i am quite happy with taking the laptop apart and fitting the hard drive as have done lots of work with electronics so this is fine
the part i need help on is the operating system..
i have a copy of the OS X leopard dvd
what i need to know is once ive physically installed the new hard drive in the laptop how do i get it up and running???
i dont have any of the original cds that came with the macbook.. just the laptop, charger and this copy of OS x leopard..
any help would be good
cheers
