SO....
Today I went and bought snow leopard. I was told by the person at best buy that It would erase everything on my computer. It did not. SO now I have a new problem...

A long time ago I deleted everything that came with iLife since I never used it. I recently wanted to use some of the things again, so I was excited because now I could install snow leopard, and it would all be new and nice. It is exactly the same now.

My question is...
I have the discs that came with my computer when I bought it, and I have had to use them once to fix my computer when it crashed. Well I want to know if I can re install these discs, with leopard on them, and then after they get done, install Snow Leopard, and it would be all new with iLife 08' on it,and then I could use the internet to update them to 09'?

IF I can do this, is there a link somewhere that would tell me how to go about this whole process, as I do not want to mess up my computer, just erase everything on it and have it like I did when I bought it...

Thanksss;)

No need to install Leopard, since there is an installer or package on either disc 1 or disc 2 that allows you to install individual software that came with the computer. Simply locate and install the things you want.
