[QUOTE="JohnLee1988, post: 923435, member: 125801"] Hi guys, new to the forums here. I just got a macbook pro about a month ago. I was wondering how to reformat it. The macbook had Leopard installed first, and came with a snow leopard CD. When I reformat can I just use the Snow Leopard CD, or do I have to use the Leopard CD first and then upgrade to Snow Leopard? Also in the beginning if I use the "erase and install" option, my hard drive is getting wiped out and getting a fresh install right? I'm a neat freak and don't want files/programs from my old install laying around. Thanks guys, I've been a PC guy for my whole life, and having a hard to getting used to Mac. But I am liking it more and more as I get more used to it. [/QUOTE]
