Installing a new hard drive problem? Help
So ive been having problems with my mac book and I went to the apple store and the guy told me that my hard drive had failed and to buy another one. I bought a new one and installed it myself (I've replaced the fan before so I kinda know what to do) so I turned it on and a folder with a question mark kept flashing, so I look up what to do and I did what they said and I inserted the Mac OS installation cd and was able to begin the download process. I got to the part where I could choose where I wanted to download the software but there was no hard drive option. Then I was told to go to disk utilities to set up my new hard drive but when I go to do that there is no hard drive to select. I'm so confused on what to do? I just want to install my new hard drive and use my mac.
Thanks so much, Andrew
