Some Samsungs have a problem if the set is turned on bfore the input put device due to a firmware issue. Try turning on the device (game, DVD, etc) BEFORE turning on the TV.
Let me know if this helped.

Do I have a bad dmd board?

Hi Dave I am Vortash if you replaced the Colour wheel and the problem went but then has returned I think it may just be a bad connection on the board check the ribbons from the lcds are secure and the plug slide that holds them in is all the way closed , also check the rest of the circuit for dry joints , I dont think this is as bad as you fear .. Regards Vortash

It sure does sound like it. Normally I replace the entire light engine at the same time because as you know this is a problem with DLP's.The replacements come complete, DMD - Color Wheel, the whole nine yards, makes the job easier. Good Luck..
