A little background before the question.
I have a first generation US Duo, got it as a gift the year it was released. It has been dropped at least one time. It has also been in storage for the last 3 years. The last time I played it, it was working fine. I never had the "CD Audio" issue and it had never shown signs of that problem.
Now onto the problem. I recently had it shipped to where I am currently living and when I loaded up the first game (Lord of Thunder) the music on the first level was gone
. But, the sound effects worked, so you know what I am thinking at this point. It played all other tunes but the level music. Then I put in another CD, all audio working
. I restarted that CD and some of the audio was missing
. Then I put in another disc, about 15 minutes in the audio died
. I put in a card, no audio
. It was making a crackling sound through the speakers before it died. I am thinking that it could be the AV cables and not the system, since the Card audio is also gone. Not sure.
So, does anybody know the problem....any educated guesses?
Thanks....
