[QUOTE="pm-r, post: 1945898, member: 175845"] Assuming the installer works correctly you can just quit and shut down the Mac once a bootable operating system has been installed and win next turned on, the user should be able to carry on as though it was a brand new Mac ready to be set up for the new user. I'm not sure if the internal boot Drive will need to be erased before running the installer or not depend on what is already installed on it. Doing so would certainly remove all previous data and any installed OS files and folders. Good luck. - Patrick ======= [/QUOTE]
