[QUOTE="macpwns, post: 820821, member: 16171"] Hey all, I've been trying to wrap my head around this issue for the past couple weeks. I am trying to restore my MBP 2.4 GHZ, 4GB RAM, 200GB HDD to the factory settings - that is, to re-install a fresh copy of Leopard. Like any normal person would do, I have used the restore discs that came with my MBP. Low and behold, the discs do not work. At all. I have checked them, not a single scratch on them - Literally JUST took them out of the box and into the machine. I have taken out the 4GB of ram I installed, and re-installed the original 2GB Apple RAM that came with the machine. No matter what I do, I cannot get these discs to work. I have a copy of Leopard (10.5) from when it first came out which I installed on my Imac. WORKS LIKE A CHARM. Why would it be that these restore discs do NOT work at all!? I'm concerned because If I ever do decide to sell the machine later on, I won't have any functioning discs!!! Does Apple warranty these kinds of things? What should I do? [/QUOTE]
