My iMac is unable to boot into "Normal" mode
I have done the SMC, PRAM,
Apple Hardware Test
Reset NVRAM
Recovery Mode
Verbose Mode (repair)
For some time, I was able to use the iMac in safe mode (albeit limited hardware)
Until recently Google Chrome began displaying what appears to be a refresh issue
Video of the screen with Google Chrome while in safe mode:
