    Help!

    I bought a Macbook a couple of months ago, but have lost the original set-up DVD's that it came with it. I can't find anywhere on the apple site where I can reorder these.
    I borrowed some off a friend but they don't work I guess there are different set-up disk for different versions of the Macbook.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks in advance.

    :confused:

    Try calling Apple in Cork or an Apple authorised reseller like Galmac Computers.

    Thanks guys

    I phoned Apple and they are charging 128 euro for a replacement set of disks. I also phoned Mactivate based in Blanchardstown, Dublin and they will re image my disk for 25 euro, so I think I will go with them..

    Thanks again!

    Its just a pity that you didn't have a "problem" with the disk, not reading or something.......they send you out free replacements when that happens......:cool:

    I don't see how, if somebody losses or damages their installation DVD's its not apple's fault.

    Their simply charging for new dvd's, Microsoft would do the same if you lost your windows CD's, infact I believe any company would
