G'day and welcome to the forums.
First off make sure your computer, whatever it is post does not state, is an Intel Model. Then you need a retail install DVD of Snow Leopard, OS X.6. Search through eBay auction sites in wherever your home country is. Tis is what you are looking for:-

As a suggestion when you get the disc, backup your computer to an external drive, erase and format the hard drive and then run the Installer. Assuming you know how to boot from a disc and use Disk Utility on the disc to erase nd format?
