Death screen help

in my game when my character dies it goes to a death screen i built and i have a button that i want to use to go back to the main start screenbut when i click the button it just restartsthe entire movie all over again from my logo and intro animation and that isnt what i want. for my button code i use
on(release){
_root.gotoAndPlay(1516)
}
i have messed with that # and i have gotten it to drop me off at my intro animation but i cant get it to my select scree. a little help please?
i cant attach any thing because it is too large but if you want to see it to help me email me at shadowsquall111@sbcglobal.net
here is the link for the file i put it on yousendit when at the main sscreen the character and the more info buttons wont work because they dynamically load two different files and i dont have credits yet just click the play button and when you get to the second level and then get hit bya truck it will take you to tthe death screen click the reboot button and you will see what i mean
