My 55" HD TV picture now looks like it's trying to be 3-D

goodluck. I have a feeling ure buying a new tv very soon.

'Preesh. Hell, if this fixes the TV for 6 months, I'll consider it a worthy investment while I start saving for a new TV. If, as I've read online, it fixes the TV for another 2-3 years, then how can I try any differently?

Keep notes. I just bought a 65" Mitsubishi DLP HD TV that is 3D ready! I'm waiting for my new place this Summer before I hook it up! (I couldn't resist the price!)

Got started on it this morning...

For some reason, it won't allow me to upload more than 1 picture per post

Thank you, sir. I'm a bit apprehensive, on the verge of, "WTF am I doing here????"

Yeesh.

I had a similar experience with my bathroom TV. I have a Samsung 46" and it started acting up when I turned the power on. Repair shop said it was gonna cost $300 for parts and $350 to fix. That would take all of my hooker money for the week.

I looked online and found it is a common problem with the Samsungs. Got the parts I needed and followed the videos on Youtube. Total cost was $12 for the capacitors and 1 hour of my time.

If you're successful, you might as well give the optics a good thorough cleaning, too... you'll be amazed at the difference.

Our mits dlp has started taking forever to turn on. Is this normal or is it time to start saving for a new tv?

If it's something new, then I wouldn't consider that to be normal at all, sunbunny.

Oh, trust me, my electrical engineer Dad is definitely doing this with me. I already told him, "You break it, you buy it."

Of course, it's already broken, but let's not go there....

I don't watch tv in here all that much, so I don't know how long it's been doing it. I noticed it last night when I turned it on. Took forever for the screen to come on.

I think it might be under warranty. I'll check.
