I Believe the model is MB464xx/A and the disc version 10.5 2z691-6037-a.


I have everthing back together, hit power botton, hear bong, hold the option key (because when i hold C down it doesn't do anything), i get the screen were it shows you the install disc and a wifi drop down right under that, mouse and keyboard work at this point, click the install icon and it freezes on that screen. The mouse and keyboard stop working and sounds like the superdrive stops reading.


Wondering if downloading a different OSX and putting it on a thumb drive will work. I've tried useIng this disc for that and I get the same resaults.
