If the counter expired, then the reset is holding both volume keys down for 10+ seconds.

The light tunnel inside the "engine" is either out of alignment or the glue holding the tunnel together is coming unglued and 1 of the 4 sides has fallen in. There are 2 screws to adjust this if the tunnel is still intact. One or both screws can be accessed by opening the lamp door and then you have to remove a thin sticky cover. You will see 2 small screws that will have to be adjusted with a small torx (3) or allen. You will have to have the safety switch pushed in with something and adjust while the projector is on, using the most easily accessible screw, turn it towards the direction of the "banding". It should decrease. If not, turn the screw the other way. The screw that is not so easy to get to is for adjusting the banding the can appear across the top or bottom of the screen. If the banding gets worse or even starts to show diagonally across the screen, it is a good bet that the tunnel has collasped.

Hi Folks
I had a bulb "expire" on me (went out early), giving the "Lamp didn't strike" message. I replaced it with a spare and unfortunately that gave the same message. I RMA'd it to InFocus who "fixed" it, citing a bad bulb. "What about the spare I used?" I asked. "Oh well" was the answer.
I got the projector back, tested it and it worked fine. So I decided to test the spare bulb I had previously, still got the "Lamp didn't strike". I thought "bad bulb after all". So I put the bulb InFocus had fixed the projector with back in, started the projector and received the "Lamp didn't strike". (ie, a known good bulb). Oh ****.
I left the cover off, jimmied the safety catch and restarted the projector, heard some snapping which reminded me of a bad electrical connection. I popped the top cover off the projector and saw where the electrical plug was that the lamp plugged into. It looked fine from the top-side and the bulb compartment, but when I used a small screwdriver and pushed on it, it dropped a quarter inch and a little plastic tab reseated itself. I realized when I had put the spare bulb in initially it had pushed on the electrical connector, not quite lined up, and pushed it up slightly into the body of the projector. The bulbs looked like they were plugging in, but the connector had moved enough the bulb wasn't making contact, so not getting power through the plug. Once I pushed the connector back down into place, I put my original "spare" bulb in, carefully lined up the connectors, and it fired up fine. (Big relief).
If you find this helpfull or need more details feel free to e-mail me
