MacBook Pro freezes on start up

While navigating a news web site my MacBook Pro slowed down on battery power. Battery was at 90%. I plugged it in. The circle started spinning. After 10 min I shut it down. Now it freezes on start up. I get the gray and blue tapistry, Apple, and spinning wheel for a minute, then the wheel stops spinning.

I did the command V start. The last item says..."air port: handshake complete on en1" Nothing else is displayed after that.

Can anyone help?

Try to boot the machine with your installation disk then check your hard drive using DISK UTILITY software available in the installation set up.

I bought this Mac from my son who lives in Japan. He said no discs came with it when he bought it new.

You need some type of system installation disk. You can call Apple and buy a replacement original system installation disk. Your machine originally came with 10.5.7. (Your machine will not boot with anything less than 10.5.7. You can also buy a retail 10.6 installation disk for $29.00. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z... this you can run Disk Utilities to repair a drive or format a new drive for a system installation. You can also get a 10.7 thumb drive that will do the job for $69. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD256Z...
