[QUOTE="jebattyb, post: 1632813, member: 341216"] I use a Mac Mini running 10.6.8 and about four years old. Recently it has become slow on occasions; a function which should be instantaneous can take up to 2 or more minutes. I have run Disc Repair a couple of times but to no effect. Can I simply reinstall the operating system from my original disc? Will it simply over-write the present software? Will it do any good? Are there any likely problems from this? Are there any other suggestions? Any help gratefully received jebattyb [/QUOTE]
