Samsung HDTV Oval rainbow of colors covering entire screen

I have model P2764 for 2 1/2 yrs now. A few months ago my cable co had to add a booster and do some additional wiring because my house is 400+ feet from the road and they needed to do when I changed to a cable bundle package. A week after this happened, I was watching TV when the power went off for a second or two. When I turned the TV back on, there was an oval rainbow of different colors covering the entire screen and straight lines were on an angle. I called Samsung/Cable Co./Power Co./Retailer and it boiled down to setting up an appt. for a Samsung dealer to come out and service it. 48 hours after it happened, it suddenly was fine when I turned the set on, so I cancelled the appt. About a week ago, I mistakenly unplugged the tv and when I plugged it back in and turned it on, the oblong rainbow is back. I unplugged it immediately for about 12 hours but it still has the problem. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you in advance

Rainbow screen

Hi Metthew,
Most probably the TCON board in your tv is defective. Please consult some qualified service technician. Most of the time the company service centers ask you to replace the entire LCD panel, which is an expensive affair. TCON board is a small part of the panel. and its job is to distribute the picture information across the LCD screen. Good luck.

Dell Inspiron D530 - Screen Malfunction - Rainbow colors?

Reseat the display cable (under the keyboard) and while you have the lcd hinge cover off, inspect the cable where is goes thru the hinge assembly for chafing and possible broken wires.

If reseating doesn't help, RUN DIAGS

If they fail then replacing the LCD display cable and or the LCD would be next.

Vertical lines across my entire screen

My 42" Samsung Plasma HDTV HP-R4252 has a 2" vertical strip of green pixels down the right side of the screen.

My 3 year warranty with Circuit City expires in Nov 2008.. so I hope I'm covered.. can't call until the morning.

Samsung said it might be a logic board problem.. but they want almost $2000 to fix. I might as well buy another TV if Circuit City can't fix it.
