I plan to buy a new 500GB HD for my white macbook running Snow Leopard. I was wondering if after formatting I could use my Snow Leopard Instillation Disk I have already used once. Please help (this is probably a stupid question)

Thanks,

Thank you very much if you hadn't told me that I would have probably bought another copy.

It's the same computer you originally used the disc for, right?

Should be fine then. Not like they were going to catch you if you used it on a different computer anyways.

OP - I was expecting this to be another thread on "I bought a single user SL disk, can I use it on every one of my computers, then share with my friends?"

However, you are rare...naive but brutally honest. Bless you and reinstall that single user SL on your one Mac EVERY DAY if you wish. I think I'm going to cry a bit I am so happy...😀
