[QUOTE="art_martin, post: 1300863, member: 145976"] hey again .. so after some googling I found out how to do a 'clean install'. the only problem is I get stuck on the first step .. which is to boot off the install dvd. in the installer, i press utilities - i press restart - i enter my password .. then it says: "Couldn't install Mac OS X. The connection to the remote install disc was lost. Check that this machine and the machine sharing the remote disc are still connected to the same network and try again." I have no idea what it's talking about. I've google'd the message but could not find anything. why the **** does it need a remote disc? .. This is the only computer in the house .. [/QUOTE]
