Are you using the remote control to align the red and blue guns to a grid?  The green gun is usually not adjustable.....at least on the Mitsubishi rear projectors I used to own.

I have a tad of experience with this with Mitsubishi rear projection piece.  What brand/model is it?  I assume you tried the standard convergence screen in the setup and it was not enough?  Are you up to messing with the service menu?

Its a zenith 52" rear projection. I am using the service knobs on the board that flips out from the bottom center of the tv behind the speake baffels. It has a set of gree, red, and blue knobs for each color but I cannot get it right. Been doing it for a year now. I am ready to chuck it. Anyone want it? Sell for 50 bucks. Pick up only. Pm me if u want it. Works but needs convergence done.
