Re: no sound, no display... bad news I suppose...

If all Daniel suggested fails, try checking the reset circuit, I posted a
sort of guide a while ago. Those reset ICs seem to fail from time to time,
specially if the you have a dodgy PSU (e.g. unstable Vcc due to bad supply
caps).

PS before any major repairs, try everything Daniel mentioned, as your
problem is likely to be somewhere there.

Good luck!
