Hi, thanks so much for all the reply. I've took the easy solution, brought it to Apple Store, and have them do it for me. Like Chris said, it took less than 10 seconds for them to get it done and reinstall os10.10 on it. As usual, i'm very happy with the after sales service that i got from Apple.
Thanks so much for all the help and suggestion.
