Hello gmparris,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear exactly what you are seeing or describing. If you are having issues reinstalling your OS and you want to do a full Erase and Install, you may find the information and steps outlined in the following articles helpful:

Hi ok so i tried to install the os but it goes to a white screen with the apple logo and freezes when i put the disk in and press c.
If your machine won't boot past a grey Apple screen, you may find this article useful as well:
