How do I install a hard drive to my 2009 macbook laptop.

Hello, I am in need of a walk through from anyone kind enough to help. I am looking for someone to help me get the macbook I was given up and running. As far as I know there is nothing wrong with the computer besides missing a hard drive.

-When I put the hard drive I had (Toshiba Disk Drive MK2035GSS) and boot up the pc it does not have the apple logo in the center of the page-I assume this is a clue, and then gives me the (black coded page containing an error code, next or exit instructions, and also talks about a MICROSOFT error? Thans so much for any help. I appologize if I have not been descriptive enough.
Specs:

HardDrive-Toshiba Disk Drive MK2035GSS
2009 Macbook 13'' (not sure what operating system it was running before.
