So. i decided to close my macbook pro for a bit and i come back in like 2 hours it's off....So...i try booting the mac book pro and all it does is pop up the apple and a status bar underneath the spinning wheel and then it just restarts after like 5 mins...So i decide to do a fsck repair in single user mode. And of course i have a keys out of order and rebuilding catalog B. and then of course it fails. and says macintosh HD cannot be repaired so i did some googleing for hours and found to boot into the install disc and do it. So i did and the same thing still pops up Please...I really need help thanks.

When you booted to the install disk, what did you do?

If I were in your situation, I'd boot to the install disk again and run Hardware Diagnostics along with repairing permissions with Disk Utility.
 
Google for something called Disk Genius. It will help.

If not that DiskWarrior can rebuild your directory trees.
