My magnavox 42' LCD tv was delivered on 9/6/07. The next day it was installed w/the proper HDMI connections using our cable providers HD cable box. Two days later on 9/10 two fine blue/green lines have now appeared down the middle of the screen from top to bottom. I was told by a tech support rep. to unplug tv and cable box for a brief period of time to reset the signal and was told there maybe a sofware problem w/the tv. The two lines also appear when playing dvd,s and when the tv menu screen is on. It appears there maybe a hardware failure somewhere.

call philips to get this srviced under warranty. this repair might take a few weeks because the failure could essentially be any one of several parts. first thing to try is the ssb, then the logic board and lvds cable. if none of these work then you need a new panel
