[QUOTE="tommason, post: 532233, member: 42005"] Hi, I have been trying to install leopard on my 'hand me down g5' which was hard drive-less when i recieved it. I ordered a copy of leopard and a 250gb seagate barracuda Hard drive (from scan computers - a pc parts store) I plugged in my new hard drive inserted the os disk and started her up.....i got the apple logo, then a spinning mac 'I'm busy' swirly mouse thing. Then a grey screen. And that's it, no more anything, just the optical drive ticking away.....until i turned it off. Any ideas? Thanks! Tom PS i have a powermac g5 dual 1.8 june 04 [/QUOTE]
