Samsung DLP turning itselff off when playing xbox.

jsmalcer

Hi I have a HLS5086WX samsung 50" dlp tv. I've had it for about a year and a half and it recently started to turn itself off within minutes of playing xbox 360. When turning it back on, the lamp and red light flash and I get a couple 10 second buzzing sounds then it turns itself on normally. It will keep doing this though when I play the 360.

I've watched tv and left it on for about 2 hours straight to see if it would act up and I got nothing, it's only consistent with the 360. I've read that it could be a few things, a ballast, a lamp or color wheel. But these people were having the issue when watching television, not with their xbox. It wouldnt be such a problem if I wasnt hooked on playing call of duty 4 and my cats didnt just knock over and crack my 24" samsung lcd tv


Any helpful information would be great!
