[QUOTE="meredith, post: 8474"] [b]Can't find start up disk[/b] Ok, for some reason, the software installed without freezing, and I got a successful installation message and my computer rebooted. Problem. Without the CD with the OS in the drive, my computer won't start up. Blinking question mark. I think the computer can't start up because it thinks the CD drive is the start up drive?! Any ideas on how to designate the start up disk? I looked everywhere in the disk utility on the OSX install disk, but can't find it.
