[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1268508, member: 24098"] Pop disc 1 in. Turn the machine OFF. Turn it back on and press and hold the option key immediately after doing so. After some time, the disc should show up as a bootable option. Select it. The Mac OS X Installer should start. Proceed through the splash screen and any subsequent screens until the Menu bar appears at the top of the screen. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your HD in the left window pane. Select First Aid in the right window pane. Run Verify Disk, then Repair Disk and the same with Verify Permissions and Repair Permissions. When all is done, I would recommend downloading and running the SMART Utility to make sure that HDD is healthy. [/QUOTE]
