2009 iMac only starts up in Safe Mode

Hello, I have a 27” iMac which recently crashed on me, Genius Bar told us the HD was the issue so I bought a new one online and replaced it. Now the computer will only boot up in safe mode, when trying to boot normally the bar below the apple logo freezes about halfway.


I’ve tried Command Alt R, and Command Alt P R to no avail.

Take it back to the Apple Store that did the work.
