And :-/ the screenshots now look perfectly normal.. I couldn't figure out how they could look the same as what I was seeing on screen - now I do. The LCD is practically new - but the video cable and the converter are old. I have some spares so I could try that. At this point acpi reports a temperature of 52C and there is no problem at all. I'll stream some video to warm it up when I'm done writing this. The laptop is ancient and I'm not sure I want to spend hundreds of dollars to have it repaired (or not.. not sure who you can trust). And buying parts one at a time and sending them back for a refund if they don't fix the problem.. Not sure what I'm going to do at this point.
