[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1907394, member: 83420"] I think that's a very good suggestion. Any Installation Disk, whether Leopard or Snow Leopard must be RETAIL. I foresee two potential difficulties: Might be difficult to acquire such a Retail Disk The Mac's Hard Drive may be defective and what makes me suspect such, is this comment by the OP: "I have an original Leopard disk and tried it yesterday and it just[B] kept restarting and no apple symbol showed up, it was just white screen then restart[/B]..any tips?"
