I have a new Memorex Flat Screen TV, and it takes about 10 seconds for the picture and sound to appear when it's turned on. Is this normal in a new TV, or fixable? The TV was a gift and is rather heavy, so although it is under warranty, it would be complicated to return it. Thanks!
This model uses a flat screen picture tube, and it could be that it is normal for the tube to take that long to warm up. It is also why the set is rather heavy. If you are able to return it, however -- I would opt for a "name brand" set that can at least be repaired when it breaks down. Check out consumer reports December issue for suggestions.
