Hi everybody!
Ken Layton:
The newsgroup sci.electronics.repair is loaded with tons of TV repair techs with big screen repair experience. I suggest making a post there, but so you don't piss them off you better make sure you give the make, model, and if possible the chassis number off of the nameplate on the back of the set.

There is a website called http://www.fixyourowntv.com. I sent them an email stating the problem I'm having with my TV and they told me which part to buy. I have to replace the ICs on my Toshiba 50".
I should be getting my order this week from them and I will post the results.

**** Update ****
I ordered 2 convergence ICs for $63 from fixyourowntv.com and they got rid of most of the issues I was having. I emailed them explaining I still had a small problem and they recommended that I resolder the vertical IC as well. Now, since I have re-soldered the vertical IC I have had no more problems.
fixyourowntv.com is definitely recommended if your projection TV goes out.
