Bruce Clarke 96 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I need some help with my Dell Inspiron 1525. I have Snow leopard on a 320 GB HDD (working) but want to use a 750 that I have. Every time I try to set up the larger HDD using Chamelion, I get an error on the pre startup page (just as soon as it gets turned on) This is really starting to irritate me as most of my files will not fit onto the smaller drive. Any help would be appreciated keeping in mind I am not a computer genius Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will boot with the boot startup disc but that gets annoying having to carry it around with me (library etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
