Q: Grey startup screen

I recently cleaned my hard drive and went to reinstall snow leopard and it came up with a failure cannot read supported files or something of that sort so I ordered a new cd to see if that was the problem. I just got the cd in the mail. I put the new disk in I now can't get past the grey screen. The loading wheel keeps spinning and it sounds like the disc drive keeps spinning too. Could it be the DVD drive not being able to load the cd or is it something more? It is a late 2007 MacBook with nothing ever done to it. It's been perfectly fine until I had the bright idea to clean it out.

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.3), Late 2007
