Don't worry Gez that's what we are here for! Welcome Sorry to state the obvious, but have you checked the fuse hasn't blown? Also, some Avants have an On/Off switch just below and under the screen, right hand side. If you don't feel it, have a look under with a torch. Hope this helps. Andy T.

Have you started a seperate thred with the photo's re- the opening and wearing of the prizes?

Poor Lee! Doesn't matter which way you jump, folk are going to winge. Personally, I don't like change, but realise that it is inevitable, so find it pointless wingeing. Hoosomever, if it's a change I lkie, I'll be first to jump up and make my feelings known

Good-oh. Some of us are making it into a 4 day tourist event! I've been to London numerous times, but only seen industrial estates up to now!

Oh YES! I'm liking this!

Ben, it will show a black sreen if there is no input. Press Sat, then on the black screen press menu and see if you get anything.

Just had a little play... While sat up on the table, press "Panel" in red, the "Move" in the blue. When it lies down, press "exit" in blue. Ten seconds later, it goes blank and to all intents and purposes, it looks dead. Then.... [quote user="Jandyt"] "a mere touch of the panel, and Beolink 7000 wakes up

Strange, I seem to remember in the original manual something on the lines of "a mere touch of the panel, and Beolink 7000 wakes up and in vites you to....blah, blah, blah" Perhaps that just refers to the display lighting up, rather than it sitting up.

Nice font on here!
