[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1639727, member: 307555"] Okay if you read my other post on my journey to install Virtual Box and Windows 10 on my MBPro, you will see I had quite a learning experience. [url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/apple-notebooks/321434-reinstalled-mbpro-no-idea-what-i-did.html[/url] So after finally getting my MBPro back on her "feet", I reinstalled VirtualBox and installed Windows 10 tech preview. It took several attempts. The install locked up. I forgot to pick Windows 8.1 64bit. I could not figure out how to tell the install where the iso file was... anyway I finally have it running. And what have I learned from this? How to reinstall Yosemite over the internet and that evidently if you have a time machine backup on a time capsule it will reinstall all your stuff up to the last backup. Evidently without user interaction. I also know how to install VirtualBox and Windows 10 ... and uninstall both cleanly now. Just thought I would share. Lisa [/QUOTE]
