These two images appear seperate from each other. One is aprox 10in from the right side and the other almost center. Both apear to look like a water mark of sorts, not much more than 2in wide and vertical through the screen. The intensity of these images varies with the back ground screen picture colors. Dark background; highly visible, light background barley seen.
I have the same issue. A have a band down on the far right and a second about 4 inches to its left. I don't ever really remember noticing it until recently. Appears like dust or dirt on the inside of the screen. Is there a cleaning method?
CHECK IT IN THE DIFFERENT ASPECT MODES. IF THE IMAGE STAYS IN THE SAME PLACE REGARDLESS OF ASPECT. THEN YOU HAVE A LCD PANEL PROBLEM. PANEL WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED.

<span>Tips & Warnings</span>
<ul>
<li>
For background pictures, you can use scanned or digital photographs, an image downloaded from <a href="http://www.ehow.com/internet/">the Internet</a>, or perhaps some original artwork that you created in a graphics program. Graphics files suitable for use typically end with extensions of .bmp, .gif, .jpg, or .tif.</li>
<li>
Wallpaper consisting of large image files will consume memory and system resources. Consider using a small image and tiling it if resources are scarce.</li></ul><br />

If the unit is out of adjustment, you will see a gray ghost on either side of the black square. Move the joystick to the right or to the left until the ghost disappears. The number values will change up or down.
If the ghost adjustment is off with a lower value, there will be a ghost to the left of the square.

Once you get the square to look good without ghosts, press "SELECT" to save any data values that have been changed.

when you leave your TV (no matter what kind) and you leave it for long periods of time on a static image or something.. the image tends to burn in to the screen... so changing the glass would be a way to fix it.... the problem is that that kind of repairmen is more expensive and difficult than buying a new set...
Replace the convergence ICs. They are located on a large aluminum heat sink withSTK numbers stamped on them. They cost about 10.00 each. They have to be soldered in. Let me know if you need anything further.
