Hello there
I understand that your Notebook is not properly showing the display, yet it is proper in safe mode.
You may perform these troubleshooting steps.
1) Un-install and reinstall the display drivers.
you can find the display drivers from the following link. Click or copy-paste this in a address bar of a web browser.
ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp35501-36000/sp35686.exe

2) If the above thing do not solve the issue, then your Notebook came with a recovery partition or you might have created recovery discs. Please backup your data and try recovering the Operating system from those discs or partition.

SOURCE: Toshiba Laptop A55-S306 shuts down with error messages
The problem is caused by having SP3 (Windows Service Pack 3) and the old Wireless Adapter Drivers.
You can use your wireless if you do not install SP3 (Only original Windows XP, or with SP1 or SP2). Alternatively you can have SP3 but no wireless. THE BEST SOLUTION: Have both by upgrading the drivers before upgrading to SP3.
1. Backup your files by either turning off the wireless and going into windows or by using an external enclosure.
a. Turn off wireless by sliding the wireless slider button forward (towards you) with the computer off and then turn on computer and backup.
or if this does not work
b. Buy an external laptop hardrive enclosure (hard drive is SATA-6 interface) and backup with another computer.
2. Restore computer to factory defaults. If you can access the computer try QuickRestore of System Restore. If you can't, either buy a new Windows Xp disk or call Toshiba tech support for a Recovery CD (or just use the one that came with it, if you have it). Note: If you buy a new Windows Xp Disk be sure it is not SP3 and know that you might have to install other drivers; best bet is Recovery Cd.
3. With the computer restored you can choose to just leave it as is and never upgrade to SP3 or you can look for new drivers for the Wireless Adapter chip, install them and then install SP3. Either way you will have a working wireless computer at this point.

I can't think of any reason why you would want to run in safe mode except if the computer crashes your system. If you have a heat problem in safe mode it is shutting down to protect you CPU and GPU which are two things you won't want to replace. If you are over clocking you CPU that could cause this problem as the power management system is not active in Windows when you run safe mode. If your system is under warranty and you are concerned about this problem ask them to do a warranty repair. If it's not under warranty you can take it to Best buy and explain the problem and ask for a PC health check. Last I heard they were still doing those for free. At this point though I would avoid running the PC in Safe Mode
