Normaly the lens would go in, as soon as the battery runs low.
Perhaps you should wait till you unpluged the camera.
Try to charge the battery in the external charger. Then after replacing the battery everything should work fine.

The black spot i suspect was the CCD or processor failing. Checkout Nikon customer support re this.
SOURCE: Battery Problem
These cameras have a internal battery that holds data for the camera to keep its settings. These batteries can be replaced but the camera has to be disassimboled to change it they should be able to be changed at a local camera shop pretty cheap.

I just had this problem today myself, and looked everywhere online for a solution. I changed the batteries (to Panasonic), and it didn't help. But i tried different batteries (Energizers) and the camera started working again.

You are basically right. Its basically as easy to replace as it costs to repair, unfortunately those are your options. You could inquire as to an estimate to make your decision easier, or locate an independent repair shop as they may be cheaper. The camera would need to be taken apart and I only recommend that if you know what your doing.
Thanks,
