M8 - according to a document I found online for a Toshiba mounting bracket kit for their LCD TVs the bolt size is M8. It should be easily available in a large hardware store or place that sells large flat screens.

What kind of TV do you have? LED TV or OCD TV or Vacuum Tube TV?

If the tv is dead, obviously it is the power supply board.

These blinks (flashes) are fault indication. By the number of blinks occur at one time switch ON, you can vet an idea about the faulty circuit stage inside the TV. Count the blinks occur at one time switch ON, carefully. Do it once again, and make sure about the number of blinks. If the flashes are continious, non-stop, the main system control IC should be suspected. If you wish to get more details, check the site linked here. It has blinking codes detail to many brand TVs.

I"d replace the tv. No telling what else got zapped. Insurance?

Me too buddy, me too. I've had an e-mail alert set up for it on eBay for about three weeks now, with no decent results. You should do the same, as I have a feeling it may be a while before one turns up at a reasonable price. I have a million or so saved searches on eBay, and it's the most important resource I have. I can't tell you how many hours of time and frustration I've saved letting eBay do the searching for me.

These are certain error indications, due to defects in board.
