Hate to be the bearer of bad news but it sounds like the graphics card inside the machine is over heating , i would check that all vents on the laptop are clear and unblocked , but if you have used this continually in this state then i doubt you will be able to repair it, as heating it up and then letting it cool down all the time will have done it no favours at all. The graphics gpu cannot be replaced so if cleaning the vents makes no significant impact then your laptop will need to be replaced

Testimonial: "Thank you so much for your analysis. I had suspected as much but I am not proficient! Again, thank you for your help! "

TV going a little crazy

I would suggest you contact LG even if the set is out of warranty there may be a software upgrade for this kind of issue or they may be by model number familiar with the problem.

It is what I call a micro related problem-all sets have a micro processor and when you unplug the set it resets this circuit.
