Big mistake ill be putting windows on it something that is normal to use or even throw it out what a junkbox for the money. Hp rules in my book ill always be a windows user.You mac guys are way to advanced for us window users.
 
so, if I understand correctly, your computer has windows and OS X on it, and you want to get rid of Windows, but keep OS X, and if possible do it without buying any more software.

yes is there a way to do this i downloaded the software but if i burn it to disc will it work or is it best to go buy a new osx or a whole bigger hard drive even and osx ?osx is the mac op i take it im very new to this lol thanks :)
 
restart your computer holding down the option button and it should ask you which operating system you want to boot into. then once you're in os x you can delete the windows partition if its not working
 
Is it possible to buy a new hard drive and go with just one or the other as the operating system i have no disc i bought it used and i would like to try mac this macbook the windows side is blue screen and the mac side is fine how can i just get ride of the dam blue windows side all together? will i need to buy osx software or a hard drive i would like to upgrade anyhow to a bigger one but how big can i go im new any help with this would be great me and my 8year old daughter thought it was time to learn the real pc world of things and go MAC no more blue screens of death lol any help would be appreciated thanks :)

To begin: . , ! ? : ; are all your friends. You can and you should use them to lightening your message and be easier to read. Seems like a good start to solve your problem. Don't take it so bad, but it's really hard without punctuation.

I don't think PeterQC was trying to offend you. I understand his point perfectly, your grammar is a bit difficult to make out. English may not be everyone's first language here but you have to understand that you are coming here for help (which cost nothing) so you have to be fair and use decent punctuation to your best abilities so people offering help can understand what your saying.
It doesn't help by firing back like you did, PeterQC could've been a big help to you.
