            I just recently bought a 16" Vizio for the kitchen and guess what? I still have my 12 year old Sharp/VCR combo... that Vizio got returned.

            Have you tried plugging it into a different outlet?
            Bad power supply?

            Since nothing is lighting up, I'm thinking power source.

              Hmm go and check your fusebox. Then if the tv works at a friends house your power supply is the issue also be sure to get a multi-circuit surge protector.

                  Not the fuses. I am going to try it in my last surge protector. Even though everything plugged into the one i had my tv plugged into still works

                    yea id say something in the TV went, but first leave it unplugged for an hour or 2 then try again, if no go then TV is a goner

                        It overheated. My first vizio was a 32" plasma, did that same thing the second week I had it. But i loved my TV, the clarity, and the price was certainly right. I got the same tv, not a single problem since. It's a warrantied deal, so take it back and exchange it for a new one. You won't regret it!

                          I've also had trouble with a 21" memorex from walfail, it was the same problem- an overheat. Never took it apart but i'm sure it had a fried board. Now have a 19" 720 Vizio and haven't had one problem.

                          life is good.
