DLP tv HELP...How can I fix this?

It's at least a 6 year old design. Before throwing good money after bad, check the Fry's ads and TV's at Fry's and elsewhere. See how the size and picture compare to your old TV.

Fry's often has a few big TVs at really cheap prices, sometimes noname ads. Go check and see how a $XXX TV compares to the one you have. Especially since it won't be a DLP, it will be plasma or LCD.

By the way, ALL "LED" TV's are NOT LED TV's. They are LCD TV's with LED backlights. By this logic, I can claim my 1983 model tube TV is an LED TV because it has an LED pilot light and it's "Digital TV" because it has an on-off switch.

You can google "Frys ads dallas" and get the newspaper copy for this week's Fry's ads online. Austin doesn't always have the same ad prices as Dallas, but they usually do. Originally Posted by GneissGuy

I personally would stick with the LED even though what Gguy says is true. Plasma starts fading from day one, even though may outlive us all and DLP, while cheaper, requires bulb replacement, sometimes more (as you are learning!) Good Luck!

I have been looking at LED tvs I want one .....Maybe for Christmas I need to save all my pennies to move next month......

You could also get a very cheap tv under the electronics section on craigslist. Alot of college students and just people in general out there struggling. Which means great deals for shoppers.. I got a brand new king size bed for 100 dollars.. Still in plastic wrap. Im sure you could score a TV for around the same price. Alot of people are willing to negotiate price to just to sell the item.. I use cl daily for all sorts of items. Even the free section has some nice things in it!

dont know how big your old tv is but heres a 27inch for 30 bucks

Today I am enjoying my new 46 inch LED tv Walmart had a bundle package where you get the TV and a blueray player for under a grand.....Which was cheaper the just buying the same exact TV by itself........
