I had a super old version of snow leopard so bought the version 10.6.3 to upgrade. I tried to follow diNicola's instructions, as it seems a lot of people were having success with that, but after installing the new OS, it just brought me to my regular welcome page, with no recovery option. I tried Command+R while restarting and that didn't seem to work either. Sorry for being a dunce, but how do I delete the existing accounts and create a new blank admin account?

Thank you!
