Start up from your system installation DVD by inserting the disk and holding down the "C" key on start up. Go to the second screen pull down menu Utilities -> Disk Utility and try to repair the disk and then repair the permissions. Let us know how you did if this fails. Thanks

Try starting up the computer in Verbose mode. Shut off the computer if it's on, press the power button, and hold Command+V . Verbose mode will show (in text) everything the Macbook is doing while booting up. If it stops at one point or starts saying something over and over in an endless loop, please post it here =)

Holding the 'x' key during startup. This will force the Mac to boot from OS X, no matter which disk is specified as the startup disk. It will not repair or replace any files.
