Boot freezes on grey/black screen unless booted in safemode (-x)

I installed everything nice and easy and can boot into OS X 10.6 easily by using the -x boot flag. However, without it I can only get passed the apple splash only to be hit with an ugly glitched looking black and grey screen. However, I can boot without any flags using the ModCD. The screen resolution no matter how I boot it is whack, just can't see the finder bar. So I just need help figuring ot what is going on. I have the impression that it is a graphics card error, but my GPU is recognized completely by the system.

My specs:

GATEWAY GT5228

-Chipset: NVIDIA GeForce 6100

-Graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4600

-CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+

-RAM: 2GB DDR2

I want to also add that I used SnowLeo for the installation and used the following options in 'Customize' (note, I did not take out in memory or my GPU during installation):

-Azaila audio

-ATI_init

-Chameleon R5

-AMD Patch

-Chocolate Kernel

-FakeSMC

-PlatformUUID

-AppleTRL8169(LAN)

-LegacyApplePIIXATA

Any help is much appreciated :) I am also willing to reinstall if you suggest it.
