I have to agree here on it being a mb to card issue. The pci-e slot doesn't look to be pci-e 2.0 - so when you run in safe mode the port is emulating a standard vga bridge. This is why it works like that. Once you load "full", the OS is using the card as a true PCI-e 2.0 device - which the port its plugged into can't handle. Thats based purely off of what has been stated here and the pic. I don't think its a power issue, if it were I would expect the box to be bouncing or similiar.
