Help Can't Use Recovery Mode in Boot Loop

I have an LG Volt with Virgin Mobile, not rooted, and yesterday it was acting up, unresponsive to touch and button prompts, etc. So, I tried to reset by removing and reinserting the battery. When it powers on it flashes the LG logo and then the Virgin Mobile logo, then it just loops at the VM logo. I've read advice saying to restart in safe mode/reboot into recovery mode but the problem is whenever I press the power button, it restarts the boot from the LG logo. It doesn't matter if I press it along with any other button, as long as I press and hold the power button it just loops. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
