Windows xp is restarting as soon as it appears to be finished booting. The
error message is the title of my post. System Restore doesn't work in safe
mode, so that's out. Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?

Get memtest86 to check your memory.

I ran memtest86 and my memory is fine. I read that antivirus software can
cause this error, so I uninstalled it. However, this didn't solve the issue.
Any other ideas?

You said that Windows exits after it "finished" booting. Okay, so just
far did the booting and Windows startup process progress?

You said that you tried to run System Restore when booting into Safe
Mode. Well, it sounds like you were able to complete the boot and
Windows load process okay when in Safe Mode. So it is something that
you load during normal Windows startup that is puking. In Safe Mode,
use msconfig.exe to disable what startup programs it lists. It doesn't
list all startup locations but this would be a start. Then reboot into
normal mode to see if the problem went away or not.

Which programs loaded during startup should I NOT disable?

All of the startup items. If normal bootup works okay after that,
reenable them one at a time until the problem returns. The last one
reenabled when the problem reappears is the culprit.
