[QUOTE="tomot, post: 1256350, member: 205591"] I was concerned that my imac HDD was going to pack it in, hence I looked at how to replace HDD videos on you tube. Following that procedure took an 1hr to install a new 500gb seagate HDD. (why didnt Apple create an access cover for easy HDD removal, must be because their btm line is hurting :) Since this new HDD is not seen by OSX snow leopard, and I plan to do a totally NEW boot camp with Windows 7 should I now create 1 partition for the entire HDD, using the Disk Utility and then wait for bootcamp to do the further Window 7 partitioning process? TIA! [/QUOTE]
