That`s unexpected. I dunno why it behaves like that i never had any problems with safe mode - black screen is probably related to video drivers, but still safe mode shouldnt load them so i cant tell anything here. It definitely doesnt have anything with the color settings.

Still is your OS working in normal mode with CI/QE support ?
