Windows 7 Ultimate goes straight into safe mode
I had a problem with my windows Ultimate where it would just shut down and then cycle into safe mode each time i would boot up. We tried the system restore to a later date however that did not work. It did mention that the system startup was attempted to be fixed but it always would just go into the safemode settings.

when these errors began? after you installed any drivers or software lately? Noticed if the error started after you install something?
The grantunwin probably is right, there is an option which, if checked your Win only start in safe mode

You need to boot your computer with a boot disk, then rename you boot.ini file to boot.ini.bak
Then youcan boot as normal, (you'll see some error messages), you should then rename you boot.ini.bak file back to boot.ini
This way you can then use the 'msconfig' utility to remove safeboot on the boot tab.
