Sounds like one of the color tubes died. This happened on a rear-projection screen I used to have. The red one went bad, it was like $400 so I pitched the TV. Hope yours turns out better

Give me a few minutes dude, my buddy is the manager of a large electronics store and they do a ton of repair on DLP's and the like, I'll give him a call real quick.

Hey man, sorry to say, but my buddy said that it's either the mirror assembly or the image engine. Both very expensive to replace.
