[QUOTE="luts, post: 973931, member: 24187"] Hi there, I have a new 27 inch iMac that came with Snow Leopard. In order to run Pro Tools Software I decided to install Leopard over Snow Leopard so the software would work. Now that I am able to upgrade to Snow Leopard I'm having a problem. The problem is: I insert the Snow Leopard Install disc and follow instructions. The installation begins, saying it will take 59 mins. At about 47 mins left, the computer automatically restarts and installation ceases. I then went to erase the HD in Disc Utility and all the options are grayed out so I am unable to do that. Since installing Leopard over Snow Leopard I have been told that the new iMac I have is not designed to run Leopard. Now I'm stuck... Does anyone know what I can try? Any help is greatly appreciated.
