Solve : Computer keeps restarting right after booting up?

1.	Solve : Computer keeps restarting right after booting up?
Answer» My computer keeps restarting just a few seconds after booting up. It only starts in Safe Mode. I was able to turn off Auto Reboot so I could read the blue error screen. Here is the full text: "A problem has been detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. If this is the first time you´ve seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Check to be sure t hat you have adequate disk space. If driver is identified in the top message, disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for driver updates. Try changing video adapters. Check with your hardware vendor for BIOS update. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced startup options, and then select Safe Mode.

What else do I need to do to get it up and RUNNING in normal mode again?
