Something that I just noticed when using my HTPC at 1280x720, is that the screen is higher on the left than on the right. I did have the light engine replaced on my set twice in 3 years.

It looks like I need to rotate the screen 2 degrees counter-clockwise to correct it. The WinXP task bar is showing more on the left, than on the right. It's about 1/2" - 3/4" off. I don't notice when watching TV, but it's pretty obvious(now) when using my HTPC for Windows tasks.

Is there anything in the service menu that allows you to make corrections like this? My video card (7950gt) only rotates the display 90 degrees.

If there is a solution that can help, please also note the steps to get into the service menu.

Thanks for the help!

Thanks for the answer htwaits.

I will call the service company and have someone come out and fix this.
