[QUOTE="Lsuber, post: 1287541, member: 212776"] Until I have the machine (tomorrow afternoon, it looks like), I won't know for sure, but I believe that the system was wiped, but the OS not re-installed yet. I'm assuming at this point that will be where I start the process, with a clean install of the OS from disc. If that's the case, is it as easy as simply inserting the disc? I found this link, and I believe it's what he followed prior to sending it to me: [url=http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3910]Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard: How to Erase and Install[/url] I'm thinking that Part One - Erasing The Hard Drive has been done, and I'll have to pick up the process with Part Two. Can I follow these instructions, substituting the Leopard disc as opposed to the Snow Leopard disc, and get the OS going? [/QUOTE]
