I want to give this another shot.

When I go to change the BRIGHTNESS the picture goes all red.It's ok on contrast. When I press the NORMAL button the picture goes back to, well, normal Question

I bought a new power supply. It's still unopened. I need to get more insight to this before I replace the power supply.

Don't know if the hours have anything to do with how this PJ runs, R, G, 2800 and the B 6800 ?

Any info appreciated.

Why would this be a power supply problem? that's the last board I'd suspect, since the set is showing a picture.

You have white balance/AKB issues. Your memory might be corrupted or it may be improperly saved, or you have a problem in the a video board somewhere. That's my guess anyways.

Thanks Curt.

The video boards from 1100's not interchangeable to 852 right?

I don't believe so, but it's not the neck boards I don't think. It's one of the video boards in the card cage, or the set needs a white balance calibration done to it.

No, the boards aren't interchangeable.

And yes, it sound's like it needs a mech white balance.
