Sounds like its fried to me. How old is it? Still under warranty?

There's a new Airport Express? :confused:

The Airport Express seems to have an unnaturally short life. One of mine died after a couple of years, and Macbidoulle (HardMac) has a few articles on it. For example, here (botttom of page).

If it's any consolation, I sold my dead one on eBay for about £30. Yes I was perfectly honest about its condition... it seems there's a market out there created by people who think it's worth trying to repair them.
