Vizio Tv's have an extra menu that contains factory settings which you can change or fix should you have a problem with your TV.
Here's how to access the menu:
1. Hold down the CH+ (Channel Up) and the CH- (Channel Down) buttons on the TV.
2. While holding these buttons press the power button on the TV.
3. After the TV comes on, let go of the buttons, and enter the TV menu as usual.
4. You should now see a "F" in the lower right hand corner of the menu. (If not please repeat steps 1-3)
5. Hold down the menu button on your remote and the Factory Settings menu should appear. From this point you can tweak whatever settings you wish.
*CAUTION* - Make sure that before you do anything you write down the settings before you change them. I have seen it mentioned that certain settings never be adjusted. Please search the internet regarding your problem before you do anything. A good resource is www.avsforum.com

The proceedure for getting to this menu is different for different models. I can let you know what it is for each model, however it's extreamly risky for a non-professional to go in and change anything within there.
