Major Problem for a Mac noob!

[caster13]

Hey guys,

okay im gonna be honest here when it comes to PC's I have no problem fixing start up issues like this however I am new to Mac OSX and Linux. Well this problem is with a Mac-book Pro OSX 10.4 (tiger if im correct).
It wont start I tried to hold the "shift" key and I can't get to safe mode.

The system froze on me last night and now when I start it ist says:

localhost:/ root# CSRHIDtransitiondriver ::stop
IOBlutoothHCIControoler:: Start Idle Timer Stopped.

I've worked with PC's but I am new to mac and I am trying to get familiar with it. But this really disappointed me I've heard many good things about Macs. Has anyone fixed this and what Im I missing.

Update

I also tried command -s and command -v neither lets me boot it stops with the same error I posted above. So safe, verbose ans single-user all failed is this a board issue? or am I doing something wrong?

This thread shows someone having the same issue. They ended up doing an archive and install.
