Dead. One week after the damn warranty's over Damn I want to hit those Samsung engineers left to right with this thing...

If there's no more warranty. Check the capacitors on the power supply.

 

If my 2233RZ dies out of warranty I'll kill myself

 

I wouldn't worry, it's usually just a simple capacitor fix. Or check the TCON fuses.

 

talk to samsung, ask for a replacement as it doesnt meet expected lifespan of the products value.

I've done this a few times.

 

Extreme but also reasonable.

 

Or use gunsmith's method. But I'm an avid tinkerer and I just have to see.
