Well, it may be either bad recovery CD, or you're having some hardware problem.
Why was recovery done in the first place?

Run hard drive diagnostics: http://www.tacktech....ay.cfm?ttid=287
Make sure, you select tool, which is appropriate for the brand of your hard drive.
Depending on the program, it'll create bootable floppy, or bootable CD.
If downloaded file is of .iso type, use ImgBurn: http://www.imgburn.com/ to burn .iso file to a CD (select "Write image file to disc" option), and make the CD bootable.

NOTE. If your hard drive is made by Toshiba, unfortunately, you're out of luck, because Toshiba doesn't provide any diagnostic tool.

start normallly button

I'm not sure what that button would be, so I assume, Windows didn't want to start normally. Is that it?

In any case, run HD diagnostic.

yes it wouldnt start normally its the page with

Windows Blah blah blah blah blah. it could have been a power failure blah stuff like it.
then it shows

SAFE MODE
SAFE MODE WITH BLAH BLAH
SAFE MODE WITH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH

SET CONFIG TO EARLIER PROCESS

START WINDOWS NORMALLY (i picked this, failed)

and this is 2nd time the first my friend used system recovery to fix it (from f 11)

then i ran a harddrive, nomarl, and basic test on it cause system recovery failed.

now its the missing item

how do i run a hD diagnosis test?

Then get Samsung tool.
You won't break anything. If you're wrong about HD manufacturer, the test will simply refuse to run.
