If you can get into recover try download the rom you want to use and pace it in root of your sd card(not in any folder). Then go into recovery wipe factory setting, wipe cache partitions go into advance>wipe dalvik cache. Hit back istall from sd card>choose zip from sd card>choose rom you placed in sd card and install. Reboot after its installed.
If it didnt work you may have screwed up your bootloader. First why did you use AAHK to load a new rom when all you needed to do was go into recovery wipe factory, wipe cache then wipe dalvik then flash rom. All rom forums have their instructions on how to install their roms. Head over to AAHK forum and go into IRC Chat they will help you solve your issue there.
NEVER RENAME ROMS

Rom are not PD98IMG.zip files...they do not contain radios, so you just can flash in CWM. I don´t know what u did, but as Reinaldo says, you might have screwed your hboot....now if you are s-off and rooted and did a factory reset that means that u have no rom in your device, plus you have just erased usb debugging so, now you can´t use the fastboot. My advice, is that u stop messing your phone. You have to ask and educate yourself before doing something you don´t know. It is very hard to solve a problem after you have messed in such a way,...:mad:

EDIT..besides to boot into hboot / recovery is power + volume down....

Dude, in the future, when things start going wrong, Don't keep clicking away at "everything chooseable". That will never, ever fix it. Stop everything & read & inform urself before going ANY further. Just some fyi for the future man. It will save ur device, if it's not already messed up

thanks for replaying guys, yea you're right i shouldn't have done anything before i was sure.

i did wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition but there is no option for wipe dalvik cache, and there is no "choose zip from sd card" its only "Apply sdcard:update.zip" therefore i named the room as "update" too. and when i hit apply sdcard:update.zip it says :
-- Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:failed to open /sdcard/update.zip (No suck file or directory)
E:signature veerification failed
Installation aborted.

and ya, i cant use fastboot eighter :(

I used AAHK because i thought it was possiable to flash using it.
I will visit AAHK forum tomorw and go into IRC chat, hope someone can help.. have to get some sleep now..

Thanks =) sorry if i have bad english btw and thanks for the info to never rename roms

Find a stock ruu for your device. Plug phone into pc. From hboot select fastboot and run the ruu from pc. You will remain s off. When able to enter Rom select to enable USB debugging. Use the hack kit option menu to re flash recovery. Now from recovery install whatever Rom you choose. Make a backup first though.

    Just right click and run as administrator. RUU's are a PC installer interface. They only run on a PC.
