I have a Marquee 8500 which is ceiling mounted. It has been great and has entertained the family for years. Now for some reason the picture is out of focus. When I turn on the test pattern or crosshtach, the pattern is shaky. What would cause this or how could I fix it. HELP ME PLEASE!!![/quote]

When was the last time you removed and cleaned all the board connectors and the contacts on any of the socketed and or removeable daughter boards from the Projector?

I am currently running the projector at 720p.
I have recently reseated the focus and hdm boards, and all of the visible connectors. I tried cleaning the contacts about a year ago with contact cleaner.

I have just reseated the clm board and the picture is now at 70%. When the test pattern is on and I look through the lens, I can still see the test pattern shake on all 3 tubes.
