Question for Dell -please answer

I have a Dell 2300MP projector that was purchased Feb 8, 2005, for use at my church. After only about 50 hours of use, the lamp light came on and the projector will not power up. I have read through the forums and this seems to be a common problem with these projectors. Is there an update or upgrade available that will make this projector work as it is supposed to?

    No exchange set up that I know of. I sent an e-mail to customer support this morning in reference to this but have not gotten a reply back yet. Are they doing exchanges on these projectors?

    Bignbadun,

    I see that you already had an exchange setup.

    No. There isn't a wholesale exchange program. What I do see is that today, Manav setup order number 61544471 to replace your 2300MP.

    Thanks for your answers Chris. Now, how do I find that order on the dell website, or will they be contacting me. I know it says give them 24 hours, and I just posted my problem today. Thanks

    The projector will be delivered to you directly within 5 to 7 business days (not including Saturday or Sunday). The reference number for this service call setup by Manav is: 61544471
    When you receive the replacement, you will find a return airbill in the box. Package the old components, affix the airbill to the box, and call DHL Express at 1-800-247-2676 to have the box shipped back to Dell. You need to do this within five days of receipt of the replacement unit to avoid being charged for the replacement.

    I will check on this again tomorrow.

    Chris, I want to say thanks for all your help. I got up this morning and a replacement projector was on my front porch. That is almost unbelieveable! A replacement projector within 24 hours from when I first contacted Dell about the problem. I think our Church will be buying Dell products from now on. I've never had a problem resolved so quickly with any other comapny. Great work, and again I say thank you for your help.
