When I boot the computer i get the following error message "WHILE INITIALINZING DEVICE IOS: AN I/O SUBSYSTEM DRIVER FAILED TO LOAD, EITHER A FILE IN THE \IOSYBSYSTEM SUBDIRECTORY IS CORRUPT OR THE SYSTEM IS LOW ON MEMORY"
Then it only boots into safe mode
any ideas would be appreciated.

Try an interactive boot up. (hold f8 after bios boot screen). This will allow you to confirm each entry in autoexec.bat and config.sys and see if any of them are the cause of the problem. If you pin it down, 'rem' it out and reinstall or upgrade your driver.
