Ok it turns out if i hit the bugger on the top it works. There must be a loose connection within the TV...

*note: by the term "hit the bugger" i mean, give it a light tap *

Quote from CSU1 :I take it that you are using a desktop PC? I had similar problems with my gfx card on my notebook the first obvious was the "extended display" feature and second was that my Samsung HD TV just would not display some resolutions(can't remember atm), try lowering the resolution of your gfx card? worth a shot...worked for me.

Hey CSU1, thanks for that suggestion. I managed to get it working once before. It would show "mode not supported" on screen. I lowered the resolution and it worked. The actual problem now is that NOTHING shows. No volume controls, no menu's, however sound works absolutely fine. I'll take it back today. My suspicion is that the power unit within the Samsung is dead.

It's from Currys, where I work. And it had been doing it since I bought it. But in the sense that it was pot luck as to whether it worked.
Basically I haven't been able to repeat the steps I'd take to get the TV to work the previous time.

It worked perfectly fine in store...

Hey all,

I bought a Samsung 32 inch LE32R51BD a couple of days ago, and managed to plug it into my pc via vga. Everything's all fine and dandy until I find I cannot turn on the screen today.

I press the on button, the red light flashes (as it should) and then the screen shows no picture, however there is power getting to it as it looks like there's a backlight working. When I then try to adjust anything.... channel/ volume/ menu. it won't show any display that these buttons are working. Although I do get sound if I magically strike lucky and stumble across a tv channel on analogue.

One thing I noticed is that the dfp wheel lost power when the screen was turned on. And it returned when it was turned off.
So I unplugged every device from my plug socket, with only the TV remaining. And it's still showing a blank screen.

Any ideas??

8.35GB in total. That includes skins for CRC, R4R, and Peregrinus. Websites for those. Development php/html pages for them too. Plus logo's. All artwork, mpr's, right back to my first lfs session 3 years ago.

However it doesn't include old versions of LFS. I've always used 1 install of lfs, and put patches over the top!

Edit: My most prized item in the collection is the original CRC video which included the likes of Tweak, Pilot, and BBO

Quote from S14 DRIFT :Haha, great stuff guys. Looking at Peregrinus at the moment (seems cool, kinda like Moo, but with.... Penquins? (Kinda like peregrinus..no? okay ), Rising Pheonix looks good however I dislike one of your members. (No offense, not naming anyone, thus saving drama)

You're not the first, nor will you be the last, to mention bloody penguins!

I like how Heikki's in italic font a friendly Finn, that's what I like to see driving a Mclaren, none of this British patriotism!

Boosterq: My best advice is race with us whenever we're online. On our site we've got a "who's online" block which shows you when we're racing.

We've had a fair old bit of interest which is really inspiring as it reassures us that we're a respected team and part of the community!

Also, thank you all for your kind words! It means a lot.

rofl, you do realise Mclaren are very happy with Heikki and won't give him away.

What about gaming then? Surely that would look like the same thing? Especially over a period of time. I do the igtc!

For me that isn't a problem. But that depends on what your walls are made out of
Good old 100+ year old brick for me!
