Dvd's are very dark and hard to see. - LG 42LC2D 42 in. LCD HDTV

If you visit FarenheitUSA com Support you can download the manual for your unit (free).

There is a inverter next to the screen under the plastics either below the screen or next to it. This sounds like a bad transformer witch is located on the inverter board. They can be ordered on line or through most laptop stores. They are not hard to change but a common problem. make sure you know what you are doing before you attemp this. Thanks

this is a very common problem... there is a lot of literature out there... thankfully your hard drive and memory aren't shot... its a glitch... here is the link to the work around http://msinfluentials.com/blogs/jesper/archive/2008/05/08/does-your-amd-based-computer-boot-after-installing-xp-sp3.aspx

screen is dark maybe has to do with hard disk dvd cd mouse pad restart reboot

Check the TV's video settings against the game consoles and see if they match.

Check your dvd settings, read the manual that came with it. Or you can just pump up the brightness on the tv when watching movies.

Anyways, hope this helps.

try to adjust your Contrast and Brightness settings to your desired option.ok??

Sounds like you've entered the "service mode" where you're seeing the chroma (color) signal only. What type of connectors are the F and S? RCA? F? This set is no longer made which makes it hard to research. By any chance, is there a small switch on the back that says "normal - service"?
