Viewsonic didn't make the most reliable of projectors (I've heard many a horror story about viewsonic LCD Projectors that had issues with the power supplies and or with the LCD panels in them going bad after not even 3 or 4 years of use and that they are more expensive to repair said issues with them than to just buy a new LCD Projector, in my experience in the LCD Projector world the best LCD Projectors I've worked with and found to be extremely reliable were the ones made by Hitatchi, and Eiki I was given an old Eiki LC330 "Cannon style" LCD Projector from 1994 (the very first LCD Projector ever made by Eiki) by my old High School A/V guy who let me have it because they were retiring the school's older LCD Projectors because they had bought in mass quantities a bunch of Hi-Def LCD Projectors I was also given an old Eiki LC300 (If I remember the model number right) and an old Hitachi LCD Projector (both from the late 1990s) and both Eiki Projectors as far as I know are still in working order yet (the LC300 I had given to my old church for them to use as a spare and the LC330 I had given to my old Job Coach's kid's to use to play video games and watch movies on and as far as I know its still working to this day.
Anyways I think your best bet would be to just junk that projector of yours and just get a decent used Hitachi, or Eiki Projector (and if you can't find those brands where you're at you could also try Epson or Dell projectors both of which are brands I would recommend as well.)
