Question about Toshiba 42H81 42" Rear Projection Television

Negative looking white screen picture

When the picture is mostly white or light in color it shows like a negative but the rest of the time the picture is almost perfect - just goes a little wavey sometimes. Any idea how much this will cost to fix? Thanks! Q2007

This tv has many problems in the scan converter/hyper bd. the wavy picture is very common the problem with the white not so much. However, I have seen them cause many odd looking video distortions and I suspect this is where your problem is. The part is usually kind of high, 250 + Labor i'd guess. If you get it somebody good they can probably repair the bd rather than replace it and save you some money. Either way i'd plan on 300-400

On the startup screen color negative

Hi, It's an unusual problem but I don't thinks it's hardware. Most likely a corrupted preference file. Remember the screen just displays what is sent to it. if the signal arriveing is reversed then you get what you are experiencing.Go to your Home Folder (the one with the house icon) and loctate the Library Folder. In there locate the preferences folder and look for

com.apple.universalaccess.plist

Locate it and put it in the trash.

make sure you have the screen showing the correct way around and then shut the computer down.

Restart and see what happens. If it's still the same, do the routine again but this time leave the screen in negative mode before shutting down.

Post back and let us know what happens.

LCD Screen colors are bad on toshiba Satellite M115-S3094

Was the screen showing all OK before you updated the driver? If so did you try backing out (uinstalling) the graphics driver? You mentioned gtaking screen cover off ... did you completely remove the screen from the laptop, including the wide connector at the top and the smaller one at the bottom, and the small one to the backlight? These connectors might be seated wrong, and you'll have to reseat them, mostly the big one at the top. Best o'luck, Moorethemerrier!

Black and white screen...

The color wheel can cause a black and white picture but not the jumpy or negative look.
Those symptoms are usually caused by the DMD assy which drives the color wheel and is somewhat expensive, most of the time you can purchase the whole Light Engine which includes the DMD assy for the same price.

No real color picture, looks like an undeveloped negative, ghost

The pictures are indeed negative. When scanning negatives or transparencies make sure you have the scanner set to the appropriate setting, otherwise simply Invert the colors in Photoshop, or similar photo editing software.

Negative screen image

Look in System Preferences for Universal Access, there is a Display option which says Black on White(the normal setting) and White on Black (the setting that has been enabled).

There is a keyboard short cut to change the setting, it involves pressing four keys - Apple, Option, ^ and 8.

Well I can tell you that the white wires are negative. The colored wires are positive. Do you still have your manual? Never mind that. There is not a description reference to show you how & where the connectors connect to the board. I would say the two "Black & white", connect the case speaker, most Pc's the negative would face to your right looking in at the board. "Blue & white" would be the reset switch & red & white most likely is the "Power Led". Good luck.
