What?
Louder noise? As in a fan or color wheel going out, please clarify.

- This will be an odd question but can you describe the noise? Is it a whirring or whining sound or a click of some sort?

- a whirr or a whine or even a dull buzz would be from the color wheel motor. There are only two moving parts in this set and the noise likely would be generated from either the fans or the wheel. Take the back off the set and see if you can pinpoint where the sound is coming from. If its near a fan, use your finger to stop the fan and if it goes away, you've found your problem. If the noise seems to be comming from the black housing near the lamp then the color wheel motor is on its way to the grave. If you do indeed find that to be the problem post again and I'll walk you throught the dismantle. Good Luck.

My Samsung HLN617W developed several problems recently. 1) I'll be watching a station, attempt to switch to a different station and the picture changes. The top 3/4 becomes scrunched up and unformatted to the widescreen picture and the lower 1/4 is a green color. 2) If I attempt to turn off the TV with either the remote or manually push the button on the set, nothing happens and the entire screen slowly fades to a bright green. 3) I may try to turn off the set while watching TV and it simply won't turn off. I have to then unplug the cord manually. On the flip side, I may try to turn it on but it won't. I have to unplug and plug the power several times to get it to start. All of these problems recently developed and work intermittently with one another.
