I have a 4:3 from Insignia that is cropping part of my picture on my xbox 360 games. I heard that if I could get access to the service menu I could change that. Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated.

I found this info on the net, see if it helps.

First, open up the remote control. I found this easily done by prying
the bottom half of the case outwards at the rear end and then sticking
another screwdriver in to the gap to hold it open. Then work your way
around the case prying outwards on the bottom half, this should release
the latches without any trouble at all.

With the case open you'll notice that there many buttons that are
normally not accessible. Some of these don't have an actual "switch"
under them, but others do. The two that are of interest here are the one
directly under the "lock" button (that runs the parental controls) and
to the left of that one, x'ed below:

[ ] [lock]
[xxxx] [xxxx]

With the TV on, press the left button and then the right (no holding
required.) The word TEST should appear in the upper right corner of the
screen. The number keys select different menus, #1 probably being the
most useful. It has the geometry controls, I was able to shrink the
vertical size down to 16x9 and still have a little extra adjustment left
over. #3 has some video adjustments like red, green, and blue drive
along with some others I'm not sure of. If you go messing around with
the settings it would be a good idea to write down the settings before
you go changing them so you can set everything back to normal afterwards
if something goes wrong. Press the number of the menu you're currently
on and it'll go away but stay in test mode. Press the right "hidden"
button to exit test mode. Afterwards I just punched some holes through
the plastic overlay on the top of the remote so that I can easily switch
from 4x3 to 16x9 operation.

Oh, forgot to mention how to change the settings, doh! :)
Channel + and - keys change the highlighted setting, volume + and -
change the value.

I believe the original post above referred to the IS-TV04091 and this information is certainly correct for this 20" standard definition set. The IS-TV040928 is a 27" high definition set and could well have been built for Insignia by a different manufacturer. Does anyone know who manufactured either of these sets? Regards,

I know it wasn't for this exact set. However most of the time the manufacturer will usually keep the service mode entry the same. It's free information. Try it, if it doesn't work, oh well.

I looked up your model TV. Very nice looking! I can't help but notice how much the latest Insignia TVs have that "Samsung" styling. This one, in particular, looks alot like the Samsung TXT2782. Perhaps a Samsung service mode code would work?
