Q: macbook late 2008, re-installing issue

Hi,

 

I have a Late 2008 MacBook, 13 inch aluminum running OS X 10.9.5.

 

I would like to wipe the disk clean and re-install the software before I pass it on. I have tried inserting the disk that came with it but it will not run. I'm guessing this is because the OS X software has been updated and the disks are now obsolete. Can someone confirm this is the case and how I can get around this?

 

I have tried holding down the C key and the T key on separate occasions with the disk inserted and restarting.

 

I get to the language choice and click English, but then a little window appears saying MAC OS X cannot be installed on this computer.

 

Thanks in advance.

MacBook
