I have a pair of hvr-1600s, and occasionally have red-screen problems.
When it hits me, I do a complete power-off, including the hard switch on
the back of the power supply.  (or unplug the cord)  Then upon power-up,
all is well again.  I also occasionally have no sound, and that can be
fixed unloading and reloading the drivers.
