It’s not in safe mode; just looks like it is. Graphically it looks the same as Safe Mode (or very similar).

OK several stupid questions. Have you checked your screen Color Quality settings? As in it might be set on 16 bit rather than 32? Did you install additional new programs such as anti-virus that might be causing a resource problem on boot up? If so you may have a RAM issue. XP is turtle slow under 500MB of SDRAM. Have you tried a selective start up shutting down a bunch of non essential programs to see if one is holding it off? Last one is are you using AOL software such as connect software? Just trying to help.
