[QUOTE="al gilliland, post: 377666, member: 23318"] [b]still not reading[/b] Thanks everyone So I reinstalled the hard drive and booted with the C down and went to disk utilities. It shows my DVD player and a icon called media which I assume is the new hard drive. Clicked on erase. Showed volume format as "mac os standard" and I didn't name it. Clicked erase and the "destroy blah blah", then clicked erase and and got message Disk erase failed and "the chosen size is not valid for the chosen file system" I'm at a loss. any help would be appreciated. Now about the drive it is a SATA 2..That's the correct unit right?? Cheers Alastair [/QUOTE]
Verification
