The light bulb just exploded. Your lucky, your DLP lasted 4.5 years! My bulb lasted less than a measly 2 years. To replace a bulb it is around $200 (it was for me). Depending on the tv the bulb may be more. Depends on what you want, if it is a good tv, then replace the bulb, if it is old (which is seems) and you want a new one, then buy a new one.
If the colour wheel was knocked out of place, there would still be an image, the colours would just be off, unless you tackled the thing NFL style.
