I will mention everything that I have done:

I ran into the Stuck-on-Grey-Startup-Screen Problem, which I often run into and so I have decided to reinstall my Mac partition again (Which by far is the only solution towards the Grey Screen Problem). I have reinstall the parition with my Snow Leopard Disc that did not come with my Macbook, somehow I am able to install it (From what I have read I should only be able to Re-install using the Disc that comes with the Macbook), and after setting up the Use Account I did a Software Update, and halfway through it tells me that the Update ran into an error and I am once again stuck with the Grey Screen Problem. I then reinstall with my Leopard Disc that come with my Macbook, after finish installing I realize that my Macbook have been significantly slowed down, simply setting up a User Account takes about 20 Minutes because of all the slow loading time, and Beach balls appear more frequently than usual.

Also as a note, before setting up the User Account there is all the Welcome in different Languages popping up, during that part the computer actually lagged and the animation is stuck, and a simle Command+W takes around 10 - 20 seconds to complete

I am pretty sure this isn't a Hard Drive Problem, because my Bootcamp parition works just fine

Appreciate your Help and for reading this long post, thank you
