Once you have a known working HD installed...you should be able to use that Mavericks installer (make sure it is a bootable installer)...or purchase a OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install disk for a small sum of $19.95: [url=http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard]Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)[/url] - Nick [/QUOTE]
