Hello Every one.

  • I have purchased a DVD of Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6.2)
  • I purchased a Mac mini with Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5.7)
  • I tried to install Mac OS X 10.6.2
  • Everything went perfectly. System was installed successfully.
  • But the problem that I faced is as follows.

  • System was installed but my older data remained as it is. (means installation didn't format every thing - means installation was done on upgrade basis.)

  • Now, my system works with very low speed. Previous performance of Mac mini was double as compare to current upgrade version.

Now - my question are as follows.

  • Does an upgrade installation causes the performance issues in Mac OS X?
  • Or is Snow Leopard too demanding for the Mac mini? ( 2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1GB RAM - is this configuration OK for Snow Leopard? )
  • Does a fresh install work better than an upgrade?
