Macbook Pro ejects install disk. Cant go to safe mode!

[Mugi]

Hi, i have just replaced my harddrive on my Macbook Pro 10.4.11.
I cant go to safe mode beacuse it ejects the install disk a few moments after i put it in and I cant start up my computer nor can i go to safe mode.
-Any advice?
Thanks

what do you mean? why are you trying to go into Safe Mode? you need to hold down C at start up and boot from the CD.

This and once it boots off the install disc, use disk utility to properly format the new harddrive.

I cant, it ejects the cd right after i put it in.

Is the CD grey or black? Is it pirated or legit?
