I have a Samsung DLP, model HL-P4663W. I was playing my Xbox 360 on it and all of a sudden 30 or so vertical lines show up. I turned off the gaming system and the vertical lines still show. The lines show during dvd play as well. I tried turning off the tv for a few minutes and then powered it back on with no source connected to the tv....guess what, still have the white lines. Me being the idiot I am, I didn't get any extended warranty on the tv and it's not even 2 years old yet (bought 4/05). I attached some pics, hopefully everyone can see them. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

There is a pic of that exact thing in the service manual I have. It says: 40 Vertical lines, 16 pixels wide: DDP1011 or BCA, DMD panel interference: Replace the DMD board.

If you bought the tv with a credit card check their extended warranty policy. Many have an extra one year added on to the end of the manufacturers warranty.

I'll look into that! Thanks for the reply!
