[QUOTE="bakere01, post: 1369296, member: 237345"] I'm guessing I didn't get a retail install disc. I bought it on ebay. I didn't even realize that I would need the retail version as opposed to a cd that says it installs OS X. I'm not %100 percent sure, but reading on the install disc, it says. iMac, OS X Install DVD, OS 10.6.4, Disc Version 5. Also, on the right side it says, Software is part of a hardware bundle purchase. That's what caught my attention when you mentioned the retail version. I suppose I'll need to find another disc that would work. Also, I suppose I might as well mention that, at boot, my iMac has started making three separate beeps. It does it again when the Apple appears from the install disc. I read that this had something to do with my ram, but while looking at the system profiles, it says that my ram status is okay. Any thoughts? Thanks again. [/QUOTE]
