Model number?
Actually on samsungs website they say that the average lifespan of a telly is 60,000 hours so it could be fubbered?
Additionally you could read this article : hxxp://erms.samsungusa.com/customer/sea ... PROD_ID=-1

my parents have the 40" of that, and I sell those tv's all the time, and I can safely say I have never seen anything like it! Contact the store you bought it from, assuming its still in warrenty they shoul put you on the right track

got it from microdirect a week ago, bought 2 (40" and the borked 32") very happy with it but as that link arma provided, its not quite what it should be, should just be a simple exchange

"It's buggered" is as accurate as you need without an IRIS code

took it back today and was told i had to take the problem up with samsung
"bollox, its not even a week old" i said
then he was on the phone to get someone to come around and turn the warning sign off
"dont bother, the warning is there for a reason
and i have told you what that reason was (thanks Arma),
you have 2 options,
replace the tv with the same model now or a refund, its that simple"
after a short discussion, i got another one
so far, so good
