[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 540473"] First things first. Ok here's what you can try now. Can you boot from your install disk? We'll go step by step with this so we get somewhere ok? Then when you are about to ask for the install, go to the menubar instead and somewhere there you should see a place where you can launch Disk Utility. Launch it and ask for erasing the disk, but select the zeroing option, not the ordinary erase disk option. This will do a deeper wipe of the disk. Once that is done, you can reinstall. A word of warning, this erase procedure is longer than the usual one. [/QUOTE]
