Hi carsoni, and welcome to the PC Mech Forums!!

Must be some of those programs that load at startup what is crashing the machine.

In the safe mode, pres WinKey+R and then type sysedit.

Check the win.ini and the config.ini to see what programs are loading at start up. You can disable them by puting a ; at the beginning of the line. Check if that helps.

Post back.

What AV program are you using?

Perhaps you may need to uninstall it in order to see if it is what is causing probs.
