I have around 25 gigs free on the HD. I can do a fresh battery but it is a
real pain to open the case so I have been putting off that one.

A clean install I have done before but lately my internal CD doesn't like to
boot. It mounts cds OK, it just is picky on which CD it will boot off of.

It's time for a newer faster Mac as soon as I can afford it.
