Can you try booting while holding down the Option key? Do you get a choice of OS9 or OSX?
Failing that, try booting while holding down the X key. This is supposed to start up in OSX. Been so long, I don't remember if it works just with Boot Camp or also with OS9, but it's worth a try.

If you have a backup you may want to just wipe the drive and reformat.

Can you describe the "remote install OS X window"?
While you're running in OS9, can you open the Control Panels/Startup Disk window and choose your OSX installation there? If the "remote install" window is actually the Netboot window, this should fix that.

What exactly do you mean by 'went from mac os x to os x' and what exactly does it say?

I turned the power on recently and the OS X loading screen comes up but before it finishes it goes to my blue desk top and only has the OS 9 version running. Then a remote install OS X window pops up, then the user login pops up and it doesn't work
