Apex 32" TV - Blue Screen & Channels keeping running/changing

Started up the TV, got a Blue Screen, and channel selectors in the upper left appeared and kept constantly changing, 2, 3, 4, dvd, etc.etc.,etc. Could not get a picture/reception from Direct TV. The On/Off button would not turn the TV on, only the Remote can turn it On and Off. Any ideas on what could be the problem, or should I just get rid of this boat anchor? Would appreciate some advice. Thanks Rob

Apex model PF3225, The TV is Locked (blue screen with red key on the bottom left corner). Don't have original remote...please help

Press the "Menu" button on the remote control and use the arrow buttons to scroll down to the "Parental Guide" option, then press the "Enter" button.
Type in the default parental code "6688" if you have not set your own code. If you have set your own code, type it in. If you set your own code and forgot it, override it by using "6688."
Use the arrow keys to switch the parental lock to "OFF." This allows all programs to be viewed no matter the rating. Press the "Exit" button on the remote and start watching all your channels

my apex 3230 tv wont turn on, i stored it a few monthsago when i got a new one,and it was running fine, i was giving it to a friend so before i did, i made sure it worked (just for some reason) and it didnt turn on. i read onlinea little about it and it seems that its usually a fuse, where is the "power" fuse? or is it just a general fuse that runs more than the power? and how much would this fuse cost, where would i get it? (radio shack?) and is it easy to fix if i did it myself ? thanks a bunch chris - tampa
