Remember the old "joke" about what is your plane ran on winders?  Now it 
already is true, not only for planes, but also for cars.


Those midair reboots can really be rough.

One of the tricks with Dells was to pull the plug, take a screwdriver 
and short between each prong to the ground prong.   Another is to pull 
the battery, wait 6  min, reboot.

I was on an airplane a coupla weeks ago that had to be rebooted a 
coupla times, and it still didn't work.  Seriously, start it, shut it 
down, wait 10 minutes, fire it up again, lather rinse repeat. Then 
move all the pax to the next plane over.  Same procedure with a 
battery disconnect might work?

I got in the S430 (w220 junk) this morning and was met with silence.  The radio 
was on, but nobody was talking.  Odd.  Changed to AM, and nothing.  No weather 
channel speaking either.  I put a tape in and it was silent.  Tried the NAV and 
it did not speak either.  I tried all the volume buttons up and down, with no 
change.

Is there a fuse that handles only the sound?  I am thinking this is some build 
quality issue that will require the complete removal of a bunch of expensive 
bits to remedy.
