aks28,

Does your machine meet the minimum requirements?


To install Snow Leopard for the first time, you must have a Mac with:

  • An Intel processor
  • An internal or external DVD drive, or DVD or CD Sharing
  • At least 1 GB of RAM (additional RAM is recommended)
  • A built-in display or a display connected to an Apple-supplied video card supported by your computer
  • At least 5 GB of disk space available, or 7 GB of disk space if you install the developer tools

For more information, see the Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard Installation and Setup Guide.

Also check out the trouble shooting guide.
