Bootup problems

[BigDonkey2]

My desktop at home doesn't seem to want to boot up anymore. Everytime it gets past the WinXP boot screen a quick BSOD flashes and then it resets itself and does it all over again. Safe mode works and then when I reset it the computer it works like normal, sometimes. I ran a virus scan and nothing turned up. What seems to be the problem?

Edit: I'm running WinXP Pro on an AMD Sempron 2600

When you start in safe mode, you should be able to follow the instructions in this post to get information about the BSOD (perhaps including a dump).
