For a few years now, I've had a probalby with my H6510BD.  I turn the power on and the projector starts to show light onto the wall.  After a few seconds the light goes off, but the projector's fan stays on, and it continues to stay on as if all is functioning appropriately (but you can't see anything).  If you turn it off and turn it back on, over and over again it will eventually stay on.  Once the light from the bulb stays on,  it will stay on for as long as you want.  During the loading process the light from the bulb will frequently flicker on and off as if struggling to stay on.  Then eventually it will either stay on (and then work normally from then on) or the light will die and I'll have to restart the projector again.  Is this a bad bulb? Any ideas on how to fix this?  Sometimes it takes 10 minutes of restarting before the light finally stays on.
