[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1256397, member: 46727"] Boot the machine with your install DVD and partition- format the new hard drive. Use one partition only and format it using HFS Extended Journaled and GUID scheme. (default) After that's done, you can install OS X or restore everything from your Time Machine backup (if you have one). Once everything is up and running to your satisfaction, go ahead and use the Boot Camp assistant to create a partition for Windows and proceed with the Windows installation. And yes, an iMac is not built for easy upgrades (except memory). [/QUOTE]
