We turned on our Samsung DLP and heard a "POP" and after that there WAS sound but no picture. There also seemed to be a grinding sounds after turning the TV off then turning back on.
The TV is approx 4 1/2 years old and has never had any issues. Any suggestions as to the problem...I am assuming that it was a lamp, but thoughts?

I had the same thing happen to me today did a little searching and found a how to on changing the color wheel and tore into it when I got the lamp out I could see glass everywhere and it was the color wheel so now I am shopping around for a new one I am not a tech but with the howto I found and now this forum I don't think it will be to hard and I will save all the extra money my local shop would have charged me
