Set will have a "HYPER" BOARD causing this issue----there was a service bulletin with a photo of the board with 10 surface mounted filter caps that dry out and need to be replaced.
The failing caps tend to begin to regain capacitance when hot---gradually the wait gets longer and longer.
Board no longer available from Toshiba so 3 choices: replace the caps yourself (tricky and not easy) or have it sent for rebuilt to PTS electronics (about 200) or go shopping for a new set and retire this one.

Hi,Yes your problem sounds like the DMD board.This is how it works: http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/dlp1.htm Basically the light of the lamp goes through a tunnel that carries a color wheel(rotating disc with a gamma of colors that creates the colors on your tv)then the light of the lamp goes through the DMD board which is a chip composed of around 2 million pixels that creates the images and colors.When it starts to fail it will create black bars,pixelation,color distortion or white dots on screens. Here's a video that will help you find where the DMd chip is located : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jr_9A5Xd2Q Have a blessed one!
