Hi Chris and others, No, I just ran the install app I had saved when I bought Lyon. I then ran software update and it downloaded a big Lyon combo update.
I'm a bit afraid to delete my hard drive then install because of the loiscences and such I have for programs like VM fusion and Amadeus Pro. Also, I struggled to get VM fusion working with JAWS and really don't want to go through that again if I can avoid it! eRic Caron On Jan 21, 2012, at 2:42 PM, chris hallsworth wrote: > When you reinstalled Lion, did you first use Disk Utility to erase the Mac OS > HD partition? > > On 21/01/2012 17:24, Eric Caron wrote: >> Dear Listers, >> >> In a few hours I'll head to a Apple store because this problem seems >> beyond me.
