Answer 1

File a warranty claim, stat!

Answer 2

hmmm, bad connections....... possibly a dry joint  - this is where there is a crack in the solder between the leg of the component and the circuit board - very common and easily cured.

it gives *just* this sort of effect......... when the solder is cold, it may just about make a connection........ as the component heats up a little, the solder expands and breaks the connection.

anyway, there is too little info to make a proper diagnosis, but generally these sort of 'specific' problems are the easiest ones to cure

Answer 3

If you bought it from a shop, take it back under warranty.
