MacBook Pro Won't Turn On!

I've done a bit of research on this to see if I could figure out what to do, and I have tried all of the holding down these buttons when you start it and such but it won't work.

Many people say that their computer will get to the apple logo and the spinning gear, but mine WONT and DOES NOT get that far, when I turn it on all I get is a White/Gray screen and it stays that way.

When I turn it off from tis state it turns off like it was suddenly shorted.

Any suggestions as to what I can do?

Okay you need to get into the box your mac came in and get little black folder and get the everything else folder from it ,grab the Mac OSX install CD its a grey disc in a clear plastic case. Put that in your Cd drive in the side of your computer,
Note your HDD may have crashed, is it older or newer? when did this take place? Where you installing a software update prior to this happening? Is this happening to you from a new computer out of the box? What year is your computer
These are details we need to better dial in on a solution, but this is my estimate on a fix based on the details given,
Note wwhen you hit the power button have the Install Cd in the Port ready to go.(Close)
