    Help wanted - No sound coming from Q

    ft:

    went round my mates last night and the Q decided to fook up on me - no sound at all coming from the GC part of the Q but sound coming from the dvd section (so its not the audio ports)

    any help appreciated

    Hi Camps

    This is a common fault on all Gamecube and Q machines - There is a small power regulator board which supplies the audio and digital port, this board can (and does) give up.

    I have some damaged units at the moment and will give you a shout when they have been tested and the fault isolated.

        My GC sound just died.
        Details: Was using the RGB mod cable and while the GC was still switched on, I unplugged the TV end of the scart cable and plugged it back into a different port on the TV.
        Sound was no more.
        Go go Saurian...

          Oh no, that's real bad news!!!! ft:
          Are there any precautions I can take so that my lovely Q's sound doesn't die?

            charles - thats the exact same thing i did - had to change scart port due to mates tv being a **** (not being rgb compat from scart 1 but from scart 3) and sound died

            sounds like its shorted out the same chip on the board as yours

            Q is now in storage until a solution is found, or till i gets the cash together for a new one - which ever comes first

              Thanks for saying this Charles... as I've been unplugging my mod RGB cable at the Scart end occasionally with the power on also. I won't be doing that again now!
