[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1264808, member: 24098"] Rather than hold the C key down, do this instead: 1. Leave System Disc 1 (the one that came with the machine) in the drive. 2. Turn the computer OFF 3. Turn the computer on and immediately press and hold the OPTION key. 4. Continue holding the OPTION key until you see "Macintosh HD" appear on the screen. 5. After several seconds, you should see a CD icon appear... this is your system disc 6. Double-click the System disc and the machine should boot from it. It will take SEVERAL MINUTES. Just wait until the installer screen appears. The rest should be fairly straightforward. If that doesn't work, either your disc or your optical drive is hosed. Report back and we'll direct you from there. [/QUOTE]
