I have a Samsung LN-R268W 26 in. HDTV-Ready LCD Television, a few years old. Shortly after I bought it, began to notice a light pink-to-purple area of shimmer or ghost-mage on portions of the screen showing bight/white or bright/blue images. The pink shimmering or pool of color does not stay in one place, does not form a straight line, is not overly pixelated, and disappears when the bright image on screen changes to something else. Almost seems as if the "intensity" of the bright areas on screen is too high and changes white to pink.

I have the same problem. When I turn the back light brightness to anything over 5 (out of 10) i get the pink ghosting as well. Everything that is supposed to be white has this pink pixelated look to it.
IT SOUNDS LIKE THE MAIN BOARD IS BAD. THERE IS 2 DIFFERENT VERSIONS FOR THIS SET .AM02 UNITS OR VERSION 0001 UNITS. THE PART NUMBER IS BN94-00695E. THEY BOTH ARE ABOUT $210 + $50 CORE.

Was bought in 09, I looked at all the caps described in other topics and find none to be bulged on the PS. The screen looks like areas of pink mixed with areas of green but all looks slightly pixelated snow. Set turns off and on from 10-30 second intervals.
