This information should determine if your MBP came with Snow Leopard OSX disks (10.6) or Lion OSX (10.7).
Ciao.

If your computer shipped with Snow Leopard then you should have two gray discs that should have made their way with the machine.
If your machine shipped with Snow Leopard, you'll need that disc (and not the white retail version) to boot from.
What happens when you boot and hold down the the command and R keys whilst booting? Anything at all?

Can you access OS X: About OS X Recovery in your native language? -
