Do you have a RPTV (rear projection TV)? If so, you probably need to align the tubes. I don't know much about RPTVs, though, as I have never owned one. Mayve some of the other members can help you.

Sounds like it may be "blooming". Do you have a set-up disc such as Avia or even the THX otimode tests on one of your DVDs? You may have to turn down your contrast/picture setting.
