I had exactly the same problem and as it was under warranty they changed the power supply. However, after a week or so the same thing happened with the new power supply.
Not sure where to go now as it is out of guarantee

Change the Electrolytics in the Power Supply

i have been trying to suss this problem out for a while, a family member has just given me their tv and i swapped the adaptor over, hey presto the tv that kept going off appears fine with the new adaptor in place. im not sure whether this will work for you but the symptoms you talk about are exactly the same as the ones my tv was presenting with exactly the same model. one problem is i dont know how much a new adaptor will cost or where you will buy one from. good luck
