[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1081212"] Are you certain that the discs you are trying to start up with are either: a. the original discs that the machine came with (gray and model-specific) OR b. a regular retail copy of Tiger? FWIW, I would advise you that if you have a MacBook and want to start completely fresh PLUS have the latest and greatest, just buy a copy of Snow Leopard ($30) from anywhere and buy a cheap but legal copy of iLife 09 off Amazon. The two combined should run you less than $100. Heck, you might even want to go for Apple's "Mac Box Set" featuring Snow, iLife and iWork for under $200. [/QUOTE]
