[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1523748, member: 42497"] Factory fresh would be earlier than OS X.7 Lion. It originally came with leopard OS X.5.2. You say a bootable USB do you mean a USB thumb drive or a USB external hard drive? If the latter clone the internal to the external using SuperDuper or CarbonCopyCloner, boot from the external, go into Disk Utility, select the interior boot drive and run Erase and format Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Then simply clone from the external to the internal. [/QUOTE]
