Q: Issue installing Snow Leopard

I have a 2009 MacBook that I was running snow leopard on, upgraded with a install disc purchased from Apple.  I loaned this to a friend and when it came back it was full of junk files and running slow.  I decided to wipe it and just start from scratch.  I installed Leopard from my original installation disk and chose to erase and install from scratch.  Everything went fine and I did all the available software updates.

 

When I used my Snow leopard disk to install the upgraded OS it took fine.  I went to look for available updates and there were several.  I downloaded and when prompt to restart, chose yes but it only goes to a grey/blue screen then a blank hoe screen with no dock, header or Hard Drive icon.

 

Anyone have any ideas?

Mac OS X (10.5.8)
