[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1006791, member: 42497"] Think above post should read you [B][I]cannot [/I][/B]install Snow Leopard, as that OS is for Intel models only. Look for a full retail install Leopard DVD, make sure of that and it is a black disc, OS X.5 any version, and after install update online using the Apple Combo Updater. Expect to pay over $100 for the Leopard disc. [url]http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update[/url] When you get the Leopard disc, pop it in the drive, reboot and hold down 'C' after the chime, go to Utilities in the Menu Bar, run Erase and format the drive to Mac OS Extended (Journalled), then back to the installer and run that. Then connect to the link for the Combo Updater and away you go. [/QUOTE]
