I did the unplug/wait/ plug it in again, but alas, no good.

My wife did call Samsung, and they said they'll take care of it.

I had Comcast- about 2 years ago a lightning strike hit outside my house . My TV set, my irrigation control box in the garage, my modem and router which I owned were fried. No damage to items visible. Have whole house surge protection. Seco said not their problem the damage came thru my cable lines. To add insult to injury I started to submit paperwork to my house insurance company before submitting All required paperwork I withdrew my claim. I never made a house insurance claim before. My next insurance bill went up about $650. I recently checked on line my house insurance account and it lists my canceled claim under claims made. I contacted the insurance company and requested that be deleted since I withdrew the claim . They said no since the initial form had been filed and it is marked withdrawn.
