I missed my GPU with MSI Afterburner, but it seemed okay at first. Then I set the settings to start up, only to find the OC wasn’t stable and the computer crashed before I could adjust it. I’m not sure what to do next.

With an Intel CPU you might attempt to start using iGPU, remove the MSI software or modify it if feasible, and then launch with dGPU. Or simply disconnect the video card to achieve the same result, then reinstall it.

Could beginning in safe mode and then reinstalling Afterburner be a beneficial approach?

Would it make sense to begin in safe mode and then reinstall afterburner? Yes. It could be beneficial to attempt safemode first. Should it fail, you might consider reinstalling Windows. If the issue remains, it may indicate a hardware problem requiring replacement of one or more components.

With an Intel CPU you might attempt to start using an integrated graphics solution, remove the MSI software or modify it if feasible, and then launch with a dedicated GPU. Alternatively, simply detach the video card and reinstall it.
