Show Notes

Apple Hardware Test Intel

1. If the computer is already on, insert DVD 1 into the optical disc drive, then restart. If the computer is not on, turn it on and insert the disc as soon as possible after startup.
2. Hold down the D key before the gray startup screen appears (not the C key).

Recovering from SuperDuper

1 – Start up from the OS X Install disc.

2 – When the Installer starts, choose “Disk Utility” from its Application menu.

3 – Once the Disk Utility starts, select the drive you want to restore to, and switch to the Restore tab.

4 – Follow the instructions on the Restore tab: the backup created by SuperDuper is fully compatible with Disk Utility’s Restore function.

5 – Once the backup has been restored, restart your computer with Option held down, and select it as your startup volume.
