Red square around Apple logo when installing MacOS updates and when booting into recovery mode

Anyone else experiencing this behaviour ?

I have a Macbook 12" 2017.

Everything seems OK, except this red square flash around Apple logo when installing MacOS updates and when booting into recovery mode.

MacBook, macOS 10.15

red box around apple logo, and no spinning wheel when shutting down. When I shutdown my Mac, it shuts down too quick with no spinning wheel. And also, when I'm booting into the recovery mode, it shows a red box around apple logo with green bar. it only flashes once quickly. How do I fix this? Thanks!

Macbook boot loop with purple lines on the apple logo Hello I was using my computer normally, but when I opened Safari, the screen turned into a purple screen with straight white lines. I force shut down it (pressing the power on button for 9 seconds) Then I boot it again the apple logo was kinda purple and there is short purple lines on the apple logo When I boot it and I wait for 10 seconds the apple logo and the progress bar disappeared then it reboot and reboot and it keeps rebooting doing the same problem (on safe mode too) so I booted into mac OS recovery but when the progress bar completed it shows some bleu lines and black screen Then I press the cmd+s to boot into single-user the screen was little bleu lines but the word were clear (I can see them good) So why is this happening?

It only flashes for a few milliseconds, and then the progress bar starts over, and then it continues without happening again.
