I originally thought it was the fan, but now I think it might be the color wheel? I just got the TV, but I can't imagine it has always made this noise. It is a very noisy, annoying, high pitched whining noise.

Is there anything I can do about this? I have the bestbuy warranty if need be...

Same old story. I've had my color wheel replaced three times in 15 months because of the whining sound. I have the 46" DLP model. For some reason Samsung extended my original warranty of 12 months to 15 months so I was not out any $$$.

Call and make an appointment.

That is most likely the color wheel, call Samsung customer service and they will dispatch a local tech to do the repair.

Unfortunately I am out of warranty... but I do have the bestbuy plan... so I have to wait a while (nearly a month) for their technician to come out. I hope he can replace immediately as I told them that the color wheel needs to be replaced or recalibrated.
