Each of the intermittant vertical black bars is 1.125" wide (one thirty-second of the screen width) and 10.125" high (one half the screen height in length). Bars are only in the top half of the screen. At least one bar is usually present, often two bars and occassionally three. I have the Toshiba service repair manuals with schematics for this tv.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

There is a good chance that I can solve your problem, although for me and others this problem usually shows itself as black bars that go from top to bottom, not just half way. go to the following link and read the entire thread, it is very good info. I have done this and it worked perfectly on a gateway plasma, but it also works on numerous others. there is a guy on ebay that sells a fix for $80, and it appears to be exactly what i did.

It also depends whether you have a cable box and a sound system connected to the television, I don't know exactly why this happens but that can definitely be the problem. Good luck.
