Hey, Slight problem.. well big problem..

I can all of a sudden only boot up in safe mode.. anytime i try and boot in normal mode i get the following message

MACHINE_CHECK_EXCEPTION

When its loading windows it will cut to a big blue screen with basically that on.

Ive installed no new hardware at all.. ive done nothing i can think of to damage the computer... This morning it was fine.. now it isnt... Can anyone help please

I had my onboard disabled while having the xfi in.. it just wouldnt let me install the drivers...

ive had to take it out now and ive enabled onboard sound

i got the card at christmas.. still got the box and the reciept (in email form)
