[QUOTE="dennasty, post: 885580, member: 114584"] My main problem is exactly what I put in the title. It's a black macbook that I purchased a new hard drive for. I had lost the cd's so I called Applecare and they sent me a new copy of the back up discs for the computer. After I load it from the cd, the computer tells me that OSX cannot be installed. I formatted the harddrive into one partition into Mac OSX Journaled, with a GUID partition table. Then I restarted the computer to no avail. Does anyone have a solution that could help me? Funny enough, I'm having this issue on TWO macbooks; it's the same issue except one is a black macbook, and the other is white. Would upgraded ram impede the installation of OSX onto a fresh harddrive? Is there anything else I can do to fix this? [/QUOTE]
