The red screen that appears with white writing in many languages means that a serious error has occurred with the system firmware. Sometimes you can fix this error by doing a complete system restore but usually it means that it will have to be sent back to Sony. They will replace the console if it is less than 1 year old or will charge you around £130/$200 for a replacement PS3.

Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa

The screen turns red and fuzzy what does it mean

Cost of repair would be hard to say right off,depends on what the problem is. If its the Red Tube, sometimes shops will sale you a good used Tube, Problem could also be in the Focus block control depends on part cost and labor charges.Try adjusting the RED SCREEN Drive Control on the Focus Block turn level of RED Down ,then see what happens.

Sound but the screen on my westinghouse 32 inch flat screen is solid lime green

By "sound but the screen on my westinghouse 32 inch flat screen is solid lime green" Do you mean that you have sound but the screen is green? If yes it means that an analog signal is being fed to a digital input. Did you recently change the input cables at the back from one port to another? If not then please describe what are colors of the cabels you are using(Yellow, Red, White or Red Blue Gren etc.,) and what port they are connected to so that I can tell you whether its a problem with the connections or the tv itself.

Red spot on LCD

Hi,
1) That red spot means that a pixel is stuck, actually it's very common on LCDs.
2 and 3) It usually occurs for a manufacturing issue.
4) The most of the time it doesn't mean that the whole screen is going to fail, but in my case I would take advantage of the warranty if the laptop is brand new and the warranty is still there.
Good Luck!!!
