Nikon d40 works intermittently?

I have a nikon D40 which recently started to work only on an intermittent basis. When I depress the shutter button it simply does not shoot. Then it works for few, then it doesn't. Any suggestions?

DSLR Manual Film Mode? D3100

Why do people set their DSLR to Manual mode and then set the camera's shutter speed and aperture?
Doesn't the camera already have a shutter speed when you set it to 30 or 60 fps? And the aperture is set by the camera automatically like f/6 or f/11?
All I thought one could set on a filming camera was the exposure (and maybe aperture)…
And can I set the shutter speed and aperture on my Nikon D3100, when in Manual mode?

Which video camera is best for me?

I want to buy a camera that takes photos and records,
i need something that is good for high speed stuff because i'm going to be recording motocross videos.
i also want the highest quality too because i would like to do some slow mo scenes and i don't want it to be hell laggy.
the most i'm willing to pay is $2000 probably at the most but if its a couple hundred over still recommend it, i was looking at a nikon d7000 is it worth buying?

Dslr: Nikon D5100

Added (1). Just because they can both zoom doesn't mean there are both called zoom lenses -.- learn about these things yourself before (attempting) helping others

Added (2). Wow is everyone here stupid, I have done university courses in photography so I KNOW what I'm talking about. Yes both are zoom lenses as a general categorization yet there are many type of zoom lenses in which he failed to acknowledge. There's a difference between a normal zoom and a telephoto and it's obvious your the ones that need further learning. I ask this question as I was looking for an the optic are better in a or b and therefore… Not some people beating around the bush telling me I don't know what I talk about just because they can't answer the question. Reviews say a is sharp for a zoom and b is sharp for a telephoto zoom but they don't compete directly.

Added (3). I don't want to annoy people, just wanted people to actually give me an answer and stop critiquing my wording of the question, thanks of you that actually have!
