TV is over a year old(just over) and is not under warranty anymore. left side about 1\2 way down. There is a dark smear on the screen. Looks like as if some took a dirty cloth and wiped the screen sort of thing. Have no idea what happened. But it is a pain when watching TV. This is first LCD TV. Not impressed. If someone could just tell me what it could be would be nice. People at SOYO don't really care. Nice....
Thanks in advance,

Long story short:
Had the same problem with my Soyo.
Thought it was the power supply board problem that everyone else was reporting.
ordered one. Plugged it in. Did not work.
Inspected the Main/Logic board and found what looked like a black button that could be depressed. It is located to the right of main processor on the board. You can't really miss it.
With the TV plugged in, I pressed the suspect button. The TV made a buzzing/clicking noise for a few moments and the stuck blue illuminated power button faded away.
Curious by this, I pressed the power button and low and behold the TV comes to life!
Looks like I found a "reset" button which seems to have fixed my problem.
Thanks Soyo for not bothering to mention that such a button exists.
I hope the rest of you have the same good luck. In the event you are still in need of a power supply board, email me. I have a spare now it seems. ;)
