MacBook Pro screen goes grey when attempting reinstall.
I have an i7 MacBook Pro. When trying to reinstall osx 10.6 from scratch, whether I attempt to start from within osx or by booting straight to dvd - the screen turns grey with the dark grey logo.
What could cause this ? What does it mean ? How do I work passed it ?

Are you trying to re-install using the original disk that came with the system? You cannot use a disk that came with a different model Mac.
Try disconnecting all external devices, usb flash memories etc. Turn off airport or disconnect ethernet cable. Then try again.
