If you are running in safe mode on that computer, it's almost definately a software problem.

You have changed the resolution and refresh rates down to minimal status right?

Best bet is to try uninstalling the video card and re-installing the drivers.
ATI drivers - http://ati.com/support/driver.html
nVidia drivers - http://nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
If it's an integrated device, use the CD that came with your comp/mobo.

To unistall the device, go to My Computer > Properties > Hardware > Device Manager > Display Adapters. Select your card and right-click it and choose "Uninstall".

You may also want to install drivers for your monitor. If you don't know where to find drivers for your monitor, you can use Lavalys Everest (http://lavalys.com/products.php?lang=en) which will often provide a link to the driver download page.
