[QUOTE="trpnmonkey41, post: 18128, member: 279"] What you do is put in the OS X Install cd. reboot the computer hold down C when the computer is booting to boot from disc this will bring you into setup mode where you can reinstall the OS. One of the install options Clean Install which is what you would like to do it sounds to me like he just dragged his system folders onto the Desktop not having 3 partitions. When you open up the finder and double click User Names Computer how many hard drives is it showing you [/QUOTE]
