You are getting what is commonly called a blue screen of death message.
However, I am not sure where you are getting the details of the error
message from as the interesting part is not there. You can stop the restart
process temporarily to enable you to capture the post the full text.
I suggest you Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should
help by allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click
on the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
StartUp and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.
Enable automatic restart on system failure after you have captured /
copied the message in a further post here.
An error report should also appear in the System log of Event Viewer.
You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Administrative Tools,
Event Viewer. Please post a copy of that report.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Double click the button and close Event
Viewer. Now start your message(email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. This will paste the info from the Event Viewer error Report
complete with links into the message. Make sure this is the first paste
after exiting from Event Viewer.
Hope this helps.
