problem. Some times with the black bar as in your picture, some times the bar
contained a lot of small lines in different collars. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;The good news is that it is
possible to fix it. The bad news is that you can&amp;#39;t fix it your self. My screen
was less than a year, so I don&amp;#39;t know how expensive it is to get it fixed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Good luck with it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I have completely turned off the screen done a full reboot several times. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Also checked and reseated all the cables at both the Screen End and at the Beosystem end.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Finally I have isolated the fault to definatly be with the screen display. with no Beosystem switched on. I can still see the black error mark. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>PLEASE HELP !!!

&lt;p&gt;Ive attached a picture of the problem&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Can anyone advise me on what this could be, is it repairable ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I thought if a pixel dropped out, i would see a tiny black dot not anything like this ? &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Screen is 4/5 years old and never had any problems before this. i was kind of hoping a &amp;pound;13,000 screen would last a bit longer than this !&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PLEASE HELP !! any advice would be greatly appreciated&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;scott&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
