Early 2011 Macbook Pro doesn't go into Recovery

Hi When I go to the recovery partition on my laptop I get the screen below. I hold down command when my computer is booting and select the disk that says recovery. Sometimes when I attempt to boot from the Mountain Lion partition I get a grey screen after the apple logo and spinning circle. I also have tried a bootable Mountain Lion usb stick and I get the same blue screen. Is there any advice anyone can give me?
