Ok, I'm pretty inexperienced with rear-projection televisions, but I'm
having a major problem with a 2-month old Toshiba 51" HDTV TheaterWide
rear-projection television. For the first couple of months, the television
was great- about 2 weeks ago I began experiencing a strange problem. When I
first turn the television on, the picture goes from edge to edge, however
the convergence is way out alignment. I go into the menu and run the
TouchFocus feature to bring the television convergence back into alignment.
After about 5 minutes of having the television on, the screen will start
shrinking unitl I have bars about 1.5" on each side and the convergence goes
way out of alignment again. No matter what option I use from the menu, I
cannot bring the screen back to full-size. The problem is the same no matter
what video source I use. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what may be
causing this? Please email me at jasonprussell@comcast.net

best guess is a high voltage problem with the CRT's best get in to
service ASAP before your warranty runs out.
