Good day all! My Pismo, the very same one I am upgrading, seems to have developed a sort of tick. In the past week, the volume is excessively loud. When it starts up the chime is shocking, very loud and distorted. I have the volume set at one segment of the horizontal meter using the keyboard volume controls, which reads 6% in System Prefs. Keeping it at this level setting is plenty loud enough now for me to hear System Alerts, interface sounds, and iTunes playback. If I adjust the volume up to even half, it can be heard annoyingly in another room. I have no idea when exactly this happened or how. I tried the key-combination resets and the reset button in the back, none have corrected the loud volume. Has anyone experienced this or heard of this before? Is this a PRAM battery issue?
BTW, the OS is Panther 10.3.6. I greatly appreciate any ideas. Thank and have a great day! (Heavy rain in NorCal! Feels great!) Scott -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
