Help!!!!!! My Computer died!

[Laure]

I was cleaning up my harddrive and computer and I accidentally threw out some of my start up software. I have done this once before and I know there's a way to re-boot. Right now all I get is a black screen which asks me for a password. Does anyone know what I have to hold down to re-start and then put in my OSX discs?

Can't you put in your disc and then restart holding down "C"?

Maybe that's what I need to try!
