[QUOTE="Bob_White, post: 871895, member: 30484"] Ok second thought: The system is an intel 2x 2.8ghz quad core xeon machine. It was at one point recently owned by a local business who shut down and sold it's stuff off, at which point it came into my possession. Could there exist something on the motherboard (I don't know my macs very well) that would prevent a reinstall, like a permission or authentication or some sort of lock on the motherboard? since both hd's seem fine, and the disc issue is unlikely, that leave the mobo.
