Yesterday, all of a sudden, my infocus started projecting white vertical lines on the left half of my screen. I tried to reset the projector, I switched sources between cable and DVD but it still kept 1/2 the image unwatchable.


Does anyone have any ideas on how I can troubleshoot this, or should I take it down and send it in for repairs?


Thanks for your help!

I don't know the specific fault, but you could try re-loading the system software, downloadable from the infocus website

Have you called InFocus tech support?

Not yet... I was trying to figure out a way to troubleshoot it on my own.

Just call them up. I wouldn't screw with it if I were you...

What Firmware are you using? Do you know how to download from your PC?

Hi,

Bad luck!

I had exactly 40 vertical lines over the complete screen. It started every time after some 30 minutes of projecting.

I tried every thing and even opend it to check the cables, reloaded the software several times, but nothing helped.

We call this in german "cold soldering" means that if the motherboard gets warm some of the soldering ie. from the faroudja chip just losing connection.

My SP7200 was new, 15 hours, so I got a new one.

How old is yours? How many lines?
