Sheppy1 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Ok so I found out that it is possible to isntall OSX on my PC using a retail disc, anyway, I was going to use the 2 discs that came with my Macbook, I have now learned that these 2 discs are only restore discs and when I try to install OSX using these discs I get the error message "Max os x cannot be installed on this computer" after I have chosen my language at the beginning of the setup and i can't go any further, so my question is, is it possible to install OS X on my PC using these 2 legit restore discs?

Sheppy1 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 No. Fair enough lol, ok then would it be possible to backup my existing installed copy of OS X that's on my Macbook and then restore that copy of OS X using the disk utility on my PC?
