Plasma TV Problem

So, I've had a 50-inch plasma TV since August of 2007. I have had absolutely no problems with it at all. Now, all of a sudden, whenever I try to power it up after it's been off for a while it doesn't work. It clicks on for a second, and immediately turns off. It started only doing this once or twice, and then it would turn on fine. Now it has gotten to the point where it's 30+ times of clicking on before it stays powered on. Any suggestions?

Get a new TV? Sounds like a possible power supply problem. I had a similar problem with a computer and got the power supply replaced and that fixed it. But I'm guessing at a TV problem.

I hate to say this, but it's it's not covered by a warranty, might be cheaper to buy a new one.

I got a 65" DLP Hi-Def 3D ready TV for 1/2 price and they threw in the stand and shipping for free!

Power supply in computer is way different than a TV

sportstalk -if you bought a Mits DLP, all of them are 3D ready...

DM97 -Unless you know someone who fixes electronics, youre going to have to pay to get a resolve. Is it a major brand? Bring it to an Authorized Service Center and get an estimate, prol'ly going to cost you $40 just for that. A bad power supply shouldnt be too painful, but I dont fix TVs. If you can get it fixed for $400 then thats alot cheaper than buying a new one. I say $400 'cause I just had an LCD that wouldnt turn on, thats what it took to fix it...

Yea, it's a major brand. I just didn't want to hear about how great or horrible this brand is. Hindsight I shouldn't have said plasma either, but I figured it'd get asked eventually. I appreciate the help. I figured it was something with the power supply. I'll look for someone who can fix it.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if the Pats win it all or at least get there. Maye is awesome.

      Young quarterbacks Drake Maye, Bo Nix, and Bryce Young have led their teams to undefeated records since October.   Drake Maye has guided the New England Patriots to a 5-0 record in that period, with 2,285 passing yards and 17 touchdowns in nine games. Bo Nix has directed the Denver Broncos to a 5-0 stretch, throwing for 1,976 yards and 17 touchdowns, contributing to a 7-2 overall start. Bryce Young, in his second season, has led the Carolina Panthers to a 4-0 run since October, accumulating 1,390 yards and 11 touchdowns amid a 4-4 record.   Undefeated QBs since start of October (min. 4 starts)   Drake Maye 5-0 Bo Nix 5-0 Bryce Young 4-0   Bryce Young when asked about his mindset during game winning drives: "You don’t rise to the occasion you fall back to the level of your training."

      1. Cowboys-No explanation needed. 2. Rest of NFC South equally. If I had to pick I would say Falcons.    3. Eagles- Both of the games I have attended there the fans were so horrible. The fan base is so ridiculously misbehaved, I’ve never seen such immaturity. 4- Lions- I have cousins in Michigan that grew up Lions fans and they are some of the most obnoxious people I have ever met, as are all of their Lions buddies. The NFL has been lucky that Detroit has been in the cellar for its eternity.    5. Tie between Bears and Vikings. Both act like Steelers, Cowboys, Niners fans do with nostalgia and legendary seasons but neither have ever really had them. They act like they each won 5 super bowls in previous decades but never accomplished poo outside of Chicago in 85.
