Hi all,

I have a slight problem. I had to reformat my HD due to it being corrupt for some unknown issue. I decided to to do a clean install of snow leopard. After formating and zeroing the drive the snow leopard intallation begun. All looked ok until the intall failed with 21 minutes left.

Can anyone explain? I did upgrade once before so there is nothing wrong with the disc. Could it be the hard drive is on its way out its only 6 months old as I install a seagate 500gb one myself and all was working fine.

Many Thanks

Paul
