Default Can not use Clockwork mod recovery~ please help!

Hello, I want to install a custom rom on my Virgin Mobile HTC Wildfire S. It is rooted, and i already know which ROM I want to install. The problem is, when attempting to make a backup using ROM Manager, It just reboots the phone (with the little "Tell HTC" icon at the top). I also cannot boot into recovery. I have alreay searched far and wide but all i see are " enable erase recovery and flash clockwork mod again" I have but to know avail I would be really grateful for any help (i'm a bit of a noob)

here is the info i see at HBOOT

MARVELC PVT SHIP S-OFF RL
HBOOT-1.06.0000
MICROP-0354
RADIO-0.94.00.0824

Have you flashed the recovery yet?

If not, you won't be able to make backups nor will you be able to flash ROMs.

have you tried manually booting into recovery by powering off then holding volume - and power and then selecting recovery?

i had some issues with rom manager in the past, but when i went to backup manually it seemed ok.

Mind trying my all in one tool? Try flashing the recovery from there and see if it works.

Your tool is for GSM is it not? I understand it works with both, but the recovery is different between Marvel and Marvelc. Marvelc users should the Marvelc recovery.
