[QUOTE="Trickster33, post: 1312359, member: 142091"] Good morning Working on my gf's computer, trying to get 10.6 installed. I upgraded the hard drive in my mid 09 13" MBP, and reinstalled 10.6. Using the same media I did the following: 1)Erased the drive using disk utility 2)Verified the disk using disk utility 3)Started the install of 10.6 It gets right to the end, then gives the following error message. "Install Failed. Mac OS X could not be installed on your computer. The installer could not start up the computer from the disk "Untitled". Try selecting your disk using the Startup Disk utility. Click Restart to restart your computer and try installing again." More about this computer. Logic board is new within 18 months. Hard drive is new after 12 months. Anyone have any thoughts? Sorry for the long post, wanted to include as much info as possible. Thanks [/QUOTE]
