[QUOTE="Mac2009OSX, post: 934423, member: 129835"] Hello everyone, Ive owned PCs for well over a decade and I just converted over to Mac...hopefully! I purchased a 2GHZ Mac Book Pro from a friend and it ran an OS okay when i purchased it. I did a format (write zeros), and went to install the OS from disc. It fails [B]EVERY [/B]time at 29 minutes.. It will go on for 5-10 minutes and then the machine will turn off. I have formatted fully, I have partitioned and booted from drive where the image was. I have tried to install from DVD.. Everytime it fails and shuts down abruptly! What on earth is going on with this please help!:Oops: [/QUOTE]
