No picture The screen is completely black unless the the narrow setting is selected. Audio and conrol instructions are still working as always. All inputs; DVD, directv and local channels are behaving this way.

The set will need to be properly diagnosed to narrow down the problem. You could be looking at a bad inverter, bad CCFL lamp, fault in power supply or main board.

Check the color system settings. If PAL is selected while the receiver is receiving NTSC and vice versa, there will be no color to picture. Set color system setting to 'Auto".

use menue button on tv if this does not work change main board in tv

Go into the menu and find "reset"...follow the on-screen instructions.

The top screen is worked by a strap thru the hinge, it looks like you may have damaged it, if you look on the internet you can but a replacment screen with the strap, you can also get instruction on how to do it and what tools you will need, if you dont think you can do it, their are places you can get it fixed, just look on the internet.

Preview capture may appear black or in some cases, the preview capture may not appear at all.
To fix this:
- Unplug the webcam while its showing the black screen, wait a couple seconds and plug it back in.
- Or -
Lower the video resolution.

Then to use it on the Web, do this.

no the problem is at the plasma you will have to change the setting back to the scale range that will accept the signals from the Denon, see Plasma's manual for instructions

You can check "settings", then look for the picture of "lips". This is the language area. I always just select American English. You can set whatever you like. Also, check your volume setting. Just touch the "speaker" on the main screen and up will come the volume. Increase to a level you like. I use 90 percent.

Sound and picture are two seperate things unless you use an HDMI cable so lets just deal with the picture first
After you do the connection, you need to tell your laptop to present the picture to the TV.
1- On your keyboard, one of your function keys (F1, F2 etc.) will have a short cut for this as a secondary functionality. Check for the function key that has an icon on it that looks like a screen (usually it is f4 or f7). Then hit the key that activates  your secondary functions and the key you just identified. This should activate the VGA output and in most cases will also give you a configruation screen (where you can select it as a secondary display, dual display etc.)
If this short cut doesnt work, you can try this
2- Make sure VGA cable is connected on both ends. Right click your desktop on the computer and select "Properties". On the new dialog, select the last tab "Settings". Click the drop down box under "Display" and you should see the TV as the secon option, select it. Then select the check box that says "Extend my display...", click Apply and OK. This should expand your screen to the TV, you should now be able to drag windows from your laptop's screen to your TV's.
Good luck! (Instructions on option 2 are for XP, if you use Vista let me know and I will look up the terminology for that)

Is it possible that you've gone into M (manual) mode and the shutter speed is fast and a small aperture (large number) been selected? Or has the Exposure compensation been adjusted to be -2? Does it do the same thing in fully automatic mode? It certainly sounds like some setting has been adjusted incorrectly.
