I swear this one's giving me migraines so I hope someone can Help. This might get a little wordy, so please bare with me
My issues started when I was trying to use the Mine Painter mod. I set up a 9x9 square of canvas to make a pixel art on. I got about halfway through with no problems then saved and exited minecraft for a break. When I came back the world loaded fine and I continued my work. It went fine until I looked towards the south-east. My screen went mostly black aside from an 'x-ray' view of some mobs in the distance. I looked in a different direction and the screen went back to normal. then I looked around again and the same thing happened. This time when I moved the mobs I saw motion blurred (can't think of a better way to say that.) I reloaded my game and the exact same thing happened.
I tried uninstalling the mod but the same thing kept happening. Out of curiosity, I stood looking SE as soon as the world loaded and it was fine for a few seconds until it flipped out again. I gave up loaded a back up save from before I used mine painter, but the same thing happened. I made a copy of my world that still flipped out. Then I tried to just make a new world and enter my seed manually (I like my seed.) Same problem.
I finally decide 'forget it' and totally deleted and reinstalled minecraft. I copied my mod folder's contents and my game immediately crashed after launching. I eventually figured out one of my mods (Dirtbike) wasn't working anymore for some reason so I just deleted it and I was fine. I got a new creative world started with my old seed and to my surprise I got the same graphic problem as before. I started a new world with a random seed and the same thing happened. I tried un/reinstalling minecraft again, started a new creative world with a random see, and of course same problem.
Then I got the ide to try un/reinstalling my mods ExtraBiomesXL, Natura, and Mo' Creatures because they seemed the most immediately graphically demanding of my mods. Don't know why I thought it would work but it actually did. Go figure. I was even able to reload my old backup save and it was completely fine for awhile.
Then I decided I'd use some maps in Bibliocraft map frames to fill wall space since I didn't have Mine Painter. It worked, looked nice and I got a total of 13 maps hung in my house. Then I got the idea to make a giant pixel art flat on the ground in the space a map would fill, map it, then hang it. I went several chunks away from the area I was working on to start my art, got it planned, and started working. Of course massive pixel arts aren't exactly easy so I wanted a break. I still wanted to play minecraft so I went back to my house and to my surprise the same graphic problem happened again. Only a little worse this time. Before it wouldn't actually crash my game. It'd run until I shut it down. Now it crashes within a few seconds. I get a message saying 'Java(TM) Platform SE binary has stopped working' Also, before the screen would just go out all at once, but now it starts at the edges and I get 'tunnel vision' for a second before the graphics totally go and minecraft crashes. I thought maybe it was all the framed maps because they always loaded slowly when I reloaded my world. So I got rid of them but the same thing keeps happening. Note it's still ONLY when I look south-east and I don't have a clue why. The game's completely fine unless I look that way.
Here's where the HDMI cable comes in. I couldn't get a screen shot of what was happening just using minecraft so I decide to use the 'PrtScn'
key. Only problem is my weird wireless laptop doesn't have one so I unplugged my laptop from the TV so I could use it's keyboard. I started minecraft, looked SE and waited for it to freak out. But it never did. I reconeceted the laptop to the TV and ran Minecraft but it crashed the same way as before. Now I REALLY don't know what is going on. I really don't see how it could be something with my cable because everything else is fine. I'm pretty set on playing on the TV because my games tend to lag a little when I'm not connected. I don't have a clue why. I've never noticed anything on a program other then a game, but I've only tried it with Minecraft and Skyrim...
I don't know if the TV connection is just a fluke. It might crash if I keep MC running longer and/or do more then stare at a wall
but I'm to lazy/impatient right now to try it.
CONTINUED IN NEXT POST Told you this could get long. Dang character limit.
So that's where I'm at now. I'm completely out of ideas on things I can do myself. Unfortunately I don't have any screenshots or a crash log from when this problem first stared. I do have a log from tonight though. Unfortunately that's pushing me over the character limit by itself. I just copied everything from the 'Game Output" tab because that's all I saw. Let me know what else I can do. *sigh* can you tell I've never posed a crash report before? Sorry about that.

Hope that's good enough. O and I set Minecraft to run with 6GB of RAM.
Also, I don't know if it matters, but when I run minecraft I usuely have Internet Explorer, iTunes, a couple random folders, and a program called Minecraft Structure Planner (yes I need help planning my pixel art deal with it :P) runing in the background.
Well that's finally the end of this long post(s). If youneed more info just let me know. Thanks for taking the time to read all this and I hope you can help.
First off sorry for the less than spectacular first post(s). To be honest I was half asleep when I wrote it and was more than a little frustrated. I probably should have waited to post anything but eh I'm me
Second sorry I disappeared for a couple days. I needed a break from this mess and I've been busy with family hoopla.
Now then, third and most relevant: update. It's pretty sad actually. I updated my graphics driver and java and now Minecraft is running completely fine again (knock on wood). Figures it was something simple. *sigh* What is it with me and over complicating stuff? I swear it really does run in the family and I could probably fill the character limit with example stories.
Anyway, I figured I let you know what was going on in case anyone still cares. And thanks @DiamondQ2 for pointing out the obvious. I guess sometimes that's all it takes Now hopefully Minecraft won't randomly freak out again because I look at it wrong

Well, if it's crashing, then you should be able to grab the log file and post it here. See this post for details:

This really sounds like a Graphics Driver issue. Try updating the drivers for your video card.
