Default GSR Transmission -Won't go into gear

Alright guys i need some help. I woke up yesterday to head to work and about 2 miles from my house my car started giving me trouble. I was coming to a stop and trying to shift into neutral when i noticed the shifter was not moving and i couldnt shift out of 5th gear. My car stalled and while the car was off i was finally able to shift into neurtal, but once i turned the car back on i couldn's shift into any gear (1-5 or reverse).

To make a long story short when the car is off i am able to shift into all gears perfectly. Once i turn the car on i cant shift into any gear at all. My clutch pedal has pressure, but it does feel a little softer than usual. There is break fluid in the reservoir and there seems to be no apprent leak anywhere. The clutch was replaced a little over a year ago and i cant imagine it would of gone out again, but you never know.

To give some more back-ground i have had to replace the slave cylinder on my car 3 times since the beginning of the year. I admitt to using Autozone rebuilt slave cylinders, but i have been doing so ever since i got into Honda's and never experieced any problems with them until recently.

Getting to my question, could a malfunctioning slave cylinder or clutch master cyclinder cause this issue i am experiencing to occur? Any suggestion on things to check for would be greatley appreaciated. I inspected the car briefly once i got it home, but am going to take a closer look today. Transmissions are a weak spot of mine when it comes to diagnosing a problem. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

i would check first to see if your slave is moving. if it is, then most likely something is wrong in the bellhousing area. i've seen a few cars break the fork for the throw out bearing.

Just to be sure i am understanding you correctly, if the slave is moving then the fork could be broken inside?

One thing i forgot to mention is that when i stalled and pulled over to get out of traffics way, i end up starting the car in first gear and was able to shift all the way to third no problems to pull into the gas station on the side of the road. It seems as if as long as the car is moving i am able to get into gear. It's when i come to a stop/braking that i have difficulty shifting into any gear.
