Cost to line up colors on projection TV?

[blurredvision]

My dad just handed over his old 40-something inch big-screen to me (he's upgrading to a widescreen). After transportation, the colors are off! He said I will have to have someone come out to line up the colors to make it look right. What kind of price am I looking at here? Thanks for any responses from people who have had this done or know of prices for this kinda thing.

I thought most TVs had a setting in the menu to adjust the convergence.

Not sure. This TV is about 7 years old.

If you can find the repair manual it will help you do it yourself. If not its probably big $$. My extended warrenty covers that.

I did read the thread.

My parents have a projection TV, after they moved a few years ago, I adjusted the colors on their TV using a setting on the menu that let me realign the colors.
