same problem with different modles. It worked but only for 5 min. There truely isnt an actual problem from what ive been told. Its both and neither at the same time. TV - res, needs changed and your laptop video card needs a update. Again this is what was told to me by my I.T. guy. HDMI ports do not have this problem.

check for defective buffer board, check bad component or burnt parts.

start by having a look at the power board if you are able to do so, if not get a tech or a shop to look.

The rating of the fuses will be marked on the printed circuit board, very near to the fuse clamp.

You can but the connection type is not the problem. If you have Coax cable or antenna type signal you need to put that into a tuner capable of providing the RCA (baseband or composite) video out with RCA audio as well. However if one is going that route with a HD display then the SVHS tyoe connector or even HDMI or some component level cables should be used to get the full benefit of the HD signal.If your HDTV has no Coax input then it is not a TV but a displaydevice more like what is used in computers.

If inside screen has damaged, it will be best to buy a new TV, rather than try to replace it because 2/3rd price of the total cost of a Plasma TV is with its screen itself. Take a wise decision.

The power supply regulator board should be checked. Check this link, and select the site named 'Electro-help'. All details are described there in detail.

If it has one it will be in plain site on the back panel of the TV.

the tuner or a set top box etc would have to be connected to one of the sets of audio/video inputs and that input selected.

If your comcast box has video (yellow), audio R (Red), audio L (White) out, just connect RC cables to the input of the TV at video, audio-in RC Jacks. If your comcast box has only RF out, buy one RF to audio-video converter and then connect these to the TV.
