Not sure about your exact model, but for most HDTVs, you cannot set the resolution in the TV itself, the TV will automatically adjust to whatever signal is sent to it.

Note that Many HDTVs cannot do 1080p over component video inputs, only HDMI. Also, check for firmware updates for your TV, as manufacturers seem to be are often fixing bugs with things like HDMI input detection and so forth.

A 4 flash shutdown indicates a backlight problem. It can be acused by a bad backlight inverter board (the backlight power supply) or by a defective backlight in the panel. There are fuses on the backlight inverter board called "picofuses" which will need to be checked in order to isolate the problem to the board or the panel. If the fuses are good, you have to replace the panel (very expensive!). If the fuses are opne, most likely the back light inverter board has failed.
