[QUOTE="tg456, post: 378620, member: 30298"] thanks for the help. I did not know about the GUID setting. I actually did not realise thaty I could use Disk Utility from within the MAC OS X installer, so once I realised it was there I partitioned the new disk with the GUID setting on. This fixed the problem and I could install the new OS to it. I have a backup of the old drive so will only copy the files I need to the new drive once its all installed etc.. Thanks again... [/QUOTE]
