    You need to find the right mount for your TV set. A bigger wall mount is probably better-it never hurts to go large.

    You also MUST and I cannot say this with more emphasis, MUST
    screw the mount into wall studs.

    Use lag screws and washers to attach the mount and make sure that you hit the 2x4s in the wall- If you only use two screws and the set falls off the wall you may not be able to make a claim against the manufacturer of the wall mount.

    THere are building codes that state how far apart the studs in a wall should be, check into what is standard in your area.

    --------------

    To find where the studs are you can buy a stud finder, bang on the wall-when you hit a stud it sounds solid or you can take a thin long nail and hammer and use that to probe the walls....

    Good Luck!
