so got the new 42 inch tv today and after 6 hours of cleaning and moving stuff i finally got it mounted! Plug my satellite in it works then splits the picture showing to halfs of the org picture. if i knew i could get a new one tom and get away with throwing this one in the yard id rip all 200lbs of it off the wall right now!!!! :(

Well, the TV gets the Fail then!!

What brand is it? And I would also be sure that its not your Dish box....like hook ANY thing else up to it and see what happens.

Have you adjusted the settings on your Satellite box to support whatever the native resolution is on your TV?

take it back to where you got it. They should replace it immediately. And as far as the unplugging, unless it has a windows operating system that's not going to work.
