Once booted from the install disk run Tools->Disk Utility->Disk First Aid:Repair Permissions, then Disk Repair. Try to boot. If it wont do a safe (shift) boot. Since it will load in a different mac you could have an extension problem, a corrupt font or preference. Safe boot should get you around those. Make a new account and set it to boot to that. If that works you should use Migration Assistant to move your files, then delete the corrupt user.

ok how do you safe boot and is using the shift key or not
Hold the shift key down right after you press the power button, until you see the spinning gear, (wheel) then release.
The "shift key boot" does present as list of on screen commands, but immediately goes back to Apple logo only display. No way to input commands on the "monitor" mode. Have no disk connected, just the internal one. Any suggestions?
no spinning wheel on screen..
ok no spinning wheel just go black after white screen
