Toshiba Pro laptop will not boot

I need help! My Toshiba Pro laptop will not boot. I just get the Windows XP and then it says that computer was probably shut down wrong - I get the safe mode, etc. stuff. Anyway, what do I do to get it to reboot? I have tried all methods i.e. safe, last known working..... Also, I put the recovery disk in and nothing changed. HELP PLEASE. I KNOW NOTHING! Thanks
