Question I just turned on my TV and see a separation of the red and green. From the bottom left there is a bow or bubble affect that seems to misalign the color scheme. The bottom right and top left extremes seem to be fine.
I have tried the convergence adjustments and it doesn't seem to fix it.
Answer Shea,
Sounds to me like an effect of a magnet.
If you ahve recently placed some speakers (especially unshielded speakers) or anything that containes a magnet than you will need to remove it.
If this is the problem and you remove the magnet, I suggest you switch off the power at the plug overnight for a few days and see if this helps to counter the effect, if it doesn't, then a de-magnetizer will be needed (probably a repairman will need to vosit you)
If all this happened without any magnets coming close to the screen then I suggest you call sombody to have a look.
