Thursday night my TV was working fine. It's a Zenith model from '96. Last night I went to turn it on and the whole picture is out of focus! I have no idea what's wrong with it. Anyone ever see anything like this before? I tried givin' it a good ol' fix-it-smack, but that didn't work. The TV's in great shape otherwise. It just kind of happened.

Anyone have any ideas other than just tossing it? It's probably not even worth it to fix. It's 6 years old and maybe cost $199 or so when it was bought.

If you're not willing to have it repaired, I'd suggest checking for poor solder joints and resoldering components on the motherboard. If that don't fix it, junk it.
