[QUOTE="BMWe24, post: 1870414, member: 135532"] Oh I think I do have the el capitan recovery partition. I can get to the below through Utilities: [img]https://i.imgur.com/V285q7O.jpg[/img] I've tried changing the date, and then when I restart, it still doesn't work. I've also pasted what I enter into my terminal [img]https://i.imgur.com/LKkfu4f.jpg[/img] So after I turn off Wi-Fi, I enter the new date into terminal. I then restart the machine, and it takes me to OS X Utilities (below). From there, I select Reinstall OS X, which leads me to the first picture. After I click Continue, I get an error message reading "An error occurred while preparing the installation. Try running the application again." What am I doing wrong? Also, any idea why it doesn't find the bootable USB drive that contains 10.10 (Yosemite) when I restart and press alt/option? [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ah1pufy.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
