Vizio E420i-A0 plays then shuts down
My E420i-A0 when first turned on will play fine for five to ten minutes and all at once the picture will go to black and sound will go off and after a couple of seconds both will come back on just for a minute. This will repeat a time or two and then it will go off completely. If I turn the power back on the tv will try to start as the "V" will appear in the center of the screen but no picture or sound will come up. After a short time it will go back to black with no sign of attempting to come on. It appears to me that one or more components is getting hot and breaking down because I can retry a few hours later and the whole scenario will repeat. Any ideas? Thanks

I would take the back off and check for any obvious problems on the power supply board, like bulging capacitor tops, burn marks anywhere or other obvious damage, be very careful on the hot side, the voltage can be deadly. some good close up pics. of the boards would be nice.
