The tv was found with a note attached that reads "convergence needs fixing, and when i turn it on i can hear audio but no picture at all except dark black in the center and regular blue on the left and right sides.
Maybe you can fix it in the service menu.
Turn off TV, press mute then 182, Turn on TV and check out new menu items

You should NOT need to re-align the crts to correct this problem... Chances are the failure is in your convergence circuit and most likely the convergence amps, (IZ103 & IZ104)Samsung p/n#AA62-30173D which may be substituted to an original STK394-250 and you'll need two of those. (Make sure they're not cheap knock-offs).. You may also want to test the resistors feeding those amps for change in value. And if I've lost you with any of this take the set to a qualified tech for the reapir - - you'll be money ahead... Under no circumstances should you need to change or alter the CRT placement. Chances are better for you winning the lotto three times in a row than it being a placement problem...

the lines that move are the from the auto self focus on the tv. I have the same model. go to menu and then setup and you can turn the self focus off. The only problem I have with mine, is after the tv is on for about twenty minutes, the convergience is misaligned on the left and right sides of the screen, I am currently trying to figure out how to fix it.

The Convergence ICs will need to be replaced , 95% of the time thats the problem they are on the sub board not the convergence board. You will need two STK392-040 ICs . you can get replacements at the following link and they will provide free installation instructions along with free on-line tech support when you install them. takes about 45 minutes. Heres the link.

These sets need to have all three colors - RED - BLUE - GREEN - lined up correctly on the screen in order for the picture to look normal. This is called convergence.
When its out of alignment the video will look 3-D, wavy, distorted, etc. Most of the time you just need to adjust your convergence in the menu. If you cannot adjust it in the menu - then your convergence is broken and needs to be repaired. Convergence problems are very common on all Projection TV sets including Sony, Samsung,JVC,Philip Magnavox,Panasonic,Akai
,Pioneer, Hitachi,Mitsubishi,Zenith and others.
You can get more information and a DIY convergenece repair kit with instructions from the link below.
