A TV question

Anyone know why my 32" LCD Xenius TV will no longer go from standby to on?

It's just stuck in standby with the power buzzing to it and there's nothing I can do to switch it on!

Thanks in advance as I'm pulling my hair out....
Mortgage free due to an Employment Tribunal Appeal win. The ivory tower occupants tried to walk all over me.... that was a mistake wasn't it?

    Soz no idea, but just noticed ur sig, and just wanted to say well done, its not many people that go through to employment tribs, and take on the big boys.

    Guess my settlement looks like pennies compared to urs, but the principle is the same, xx

    My genuine advice is leave it unplugged, those tvs have been known to 'explode' due to the very poor chinese electronic components they use!

    Sounds like a power supply fault. How old is it?
    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    About 13 months... hence the problem as there was a 1 year guarantee!
