Sony PFM-42B1E plazma screen

ok,..if originally u were having some image problems of a snow like flash on the screen,..then i would advice u to replace that DMD board,..the board u disconnected the ribbon power cable from.

wow..that's most definitely a video drive error. 1. Check to see your settings are good still. It's not out of the realm of possibility that something glitched in the settings. 2. Missing information is a video drive issue, period. I'd suggest that you have a video board that's truly unhappy. Is this still under warranty? Hope so, since these service calls can run some serious dough.

Power supply board is dead.Replaced the power supply board will solved this problems.Tries Shopjimmy.com,Ebay.com to buy a refurbish power supply board for the replacement.

Ur power ic inverter board is dead.
U need a new one.

you should change it from hdmi to cable. You can do it only on a hdmi tv when you do that you can use it for the pfm-42b1e because i had the same problem too. when you plug your ps3 to a hdmi tv you go to settings-display settings- video output settings than you change it to av multi. After you do that you can use it on pfm-42b1e
