I have a 10 month old series 2 model TCD540080. While watching a show, the color drained from the image. A few seconds later, the image froze. After a few more seconds, the screen turned solid green and stayed that way. The unit would not respond to the remote (no yellow light when remote buttons pressed). I unplugged the unit and left it until the next day. When I restored power to the unit, I got the green light and the night light on the front. The orange and black “powering up” screen appeared for about five seconds and was replaced by a black screen. I don't hear any clicking noises but I do hear the fan and a shuttering sound as though the drive head is racing back and forth. I don't know if the problem is a bad power supply or a bad hard drive. How do I tell one problem from the other? If it is a bad hard drive, is it possible to transfer my programs and settings to a new drive?
Thanks
