I believe the same thing has happened on my box, although a hardware
reset has yet to fix the problem! :-<

Sound does not come out of either the internal speaker, or the line out
jack. Playing a .wav or a CD produces no sound. MacOS will not play any
sounds too. I have tried everything from hard resets to power cycling to
zapping the PRAM 3 times, and nothing has brought my sound back. Do any
of you hardware gurus out there know if it is possible to manually reset
the AWACS chip? Does this mean I fried my AWACS chip? How could I
replace it if necessary? Please help.

Thanks,

Scott Sams
