Page 1 of Yamada DVD 8000 Sound Fault

Hi,

I am having trouble with my Yamada DVD 8000 Recorder which I purchased new only three weeks ago.

It has been working fine up until now but has developed a fault that I cannot seem to rectify.

For some reason there is a very loud humming noise which overides all of the playback (I can just about make out the sound of the film under all the humming), and when I command the player to do something I hear bleepy noises (rather like fax machine sounds) mixed in with the hum. I have all of the leads in correctly and have not had this problem until now.

Does anyone know what could be wrong here?
