My whole life I've been a PC user but I'm about to switch over for college ( A long way to say I have little to no experience with Mac, Snow Leopard, or any Apple OS). My friend's old Macbook recently died. He gave up on the old machine and said that if I can fix it I can have it. The warranty has long since past so I'm not expecting too much help from Apple or the store where he bought it. From what I can tell almost everything about the machine is intact, except the hard drive and the disc drive. I already own a hard drive I can use to replace the busted one and I've purchased a new copy of Snow Leopard for it. My problem is figuring out how to install snow leopard on to this new drive if I don't have a working disc drive in the Macbook. Right now I only have one computer to work out solutions with, this Vista PC. Any help would be much appreciated, and any help that doesn't make me dip in to my dwindling budget would be even more appreciated.
