[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1012457, member: 8287"] DVD's that come with a Mac are not universal. I don't care what anyone says. Also they will only install on the machine or one of the exact specs, that the DVD came with. That is a for sure thing. If you have a Retail though, then that is not the issue. That was the reason I asked. Cloning with SuperDuper should work. Try this just to see. Boot holding down Command+Option+P+R and keep them down till you hear 2 startup sounds. That is resetting the PRAM. Just a shot in the dark but if you have not tried it, give it a go. [/QUOTE]
