[QUOTE="Wheeljack, post: 1144362, member: 37466"] Easiest thing to do is to get a new HDD and an external USB case. Put the new HDD in the case, and plug it into your MacBook. In Disk Utility, format it in HFS+ Journaled and set GUID in the Advanced options. Download Carbon Copy Cloner (it's free) and clone your old drive into the new one. When it's done, take the new HDD out of the USB case and install it in your Mac. You won't lose anything and won't need to install anything either. [/QUOTE]
