Basically screwed my computer. help!

I have a macbook a1342 circa mid 2010.

A long time ago i wanted to try the new ubuntu and installed it alongside osx 10.6. I knew that the grub boot loader wouldnt like my computer if i chose to uninstall ubuntu so I installed a third party boot loader called 'ReFit'.

Everything worked great, but i was done toying with ubuntu and uninstalled it. Everything still worked fine.

I then chose to uninstall ReFit and this is where things started to get difficult. After i uninstalled ReFit My computer would boot to a white screen, and then eventually into osx. This wasn't a problem until I wanted to switch to windows (I dont like using 2 operating systems consistently, it's a waste of space since i would just stay in windows).

O installed windows, overwrote osx and as i know now, that was a huge mistake. I bought a new osx install disk to do it the right way except i cannot get my computer to boot from cd (yes its a working disk, yes it is in the drive which works).

Every time i boot up holding C it simply sits there in this limbo between my white page from the refit uninstall and the black loading screen of windows.

I'm at a loss as to what to do. I do have a desktop available to help the install. I just need to know how to go about this.

I've considered installing another boot loader program to get to the disk and re-install osx, and i've also considered maybe using a firewire from my desktop to my laptop (bootcamp is installed so i can still choose the boot option from inside the operating system, however it doesnt see a disk).

Any help would be greatly appreciated. my desktop is primarily a server and the less i use it the better, so i want to get my laptop up and running again.


I'd like to get osx back on without windows (have to reinstall anyways)
Get rid of the refit white screen.
