First try to take out the batteries out of the remote and see if its activatibng the TV set. if its not then there are probably bad micro switches in the front of the set, or the microprocessor could be going bad, or the remote sensor is acting up

there are four capacitors on the power board that the switch is connected to that are failing, eventually they will go completely and the set wont turn on at all. You need to replace the capacitors and the problem will be resolved. Find someone to replace them for you, they will cost less than £4 GBP to buy if you can do it yourself (or someone you know) probably over a hundred to get an engineer to do it

Turns off and on by itself

You have bad switches behind the push buttons on the front panel. RCA had a problem with there switches sticking internally. Change them all at one time to avoid later problems.

the buttons switches are leaking more than likely this a comon problem in a lot of tvs they start leaking and send a voltage signal to the ics and tv will start doing funny things. Anyway need to replace these switches probley about six of them in all they are mounted on a board behind where you push the power button. Should replace all just to be on the safe side.

Switch starts switching back and forth between computers itself

There are no firmware updates for the GCS62 also the KVM appears to not have a firmware upgrade port. If the KVM is auto-switching have you tried hitting the ESC key or Space Bar? That should stop the auto switching.
