Image Problem

TV has been working fine for the last 8 years.  Changed the buld a few times as expected.  I moved the TV from one room to another and now the picture is crap.  It looks like the image brightness is 1/10 of what it should be and it looks like the is a gray cloud in the middle of the screen that eminates outward and diminishes on ther perimiter of the picture.  Meaning I can see the image around the edges but as you move to the center o the screen the image goes to gray. (also tried a brand new buld and the results are the same).  Any thoughts besides its time to dump this for a new one?

hopefully it's as easy as something has fallen onto the lens assembly. if not then it's likely something inside the optical engine.

see if you can remove some screws so you can pull the screen assy back slightly to see behind it to see it the lens and mirror are clear
