[QUOTE="MacGuy2011, post: 1631023, member: 340673"] Yes, as I said the important stuff I wanted to keep was backed up. I didn't want to go thru the whole process of redoing Windows if I didn't have to. I walked away and let my frustrations pass, then took another go with the 10.8 dvd. This time using the disk utility to erase the contents of the existing os x partition. Then reinstalled 10.8, which worked successfully. Have accomplished my goal of a fresh install to work with.
