Samsung 40' Lcd Hd 1080p (ln40b530p7fxzc) Picture Problems

My Samsung 40" LCD HD 1080p (LN40B530P7FXZC) has been working great for 2 years. Now all of a sudden, it will go black (audio remains) for 3-4 seconds. When the picture comes back it only stays for 10-15 seconds. This is repeated over and over and it does not matter what the imput is (cable, blu-ray, or wii). Any thoughts on what to do to fix this issue, or what the problem might be? I played around with a few of the picture settings, and it worked for a few weeks, but the problem has returned. Any help would be appriciated. Ian
