Try restarting your computer and then push the F8 key just before the splash screen arrives. This will bring up the boot menus and then select normal mode and start windows normally. this should keep it in normal mode.

If this does not work and it keeps reverting to safe mode try opening your msconfig properties and ensure that safe mode is not the default boot.
