[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1252041, member: 56379"] Don't forget that you may also need to format the new HD. As Zigdog mentioned: - you need boot your computer (insert disk, hold down "c" key) from the gray disk #1 that came with your Mac when new (or a compatible full install OS disk) - if you need to format the new hard drive you will need to launch Disk Utility to do the formatting (Mac OS Extended Journaled) - then proceed with the OS install. Good luck, - Nick [/QUOTE]
