Can see Mediator in A4000 but will not initialise after mobo repair

I would try re-seating the Mediator.  I have had a problem where it just wasn't seen, took it all out, plugged it back in and it was detected again.  I'd also re-verify that the jumpers on the mediator bus board are set correctly.

Just a quick suggestion, did you play with the mixer in Prefs?  

Funny story, I was getting all pissed off 'cause my sound wasn't working from my Amiga.  Well, I have a receiver connected to both my PC and my Amiga, and DVD/6Ch input is set up for the PC and CD input is set up for the Amiga.  I had it set to CD, but no sound was coming out, I was starting to get frustrated.. then finally figured out it was because I had turned off the speakers (it has the A or B set of speakers to switch between) I had been using my headphones through it, and forgotten to push the A button for that set of speakers again!

Also, and this may be a bit dumb, but do you have headphones plugged into it?  Would explain why it's really low, until you turn it up really high...  Yes... I've done that before too...

On the note of Mediators acting up.  Mine was acting up horribly last night, and at the same time my hard drive's partitions decided to take a dump.

The Mediator was weird though, the expansion board list showed it working, but my Zorram card was saying it was 'Defective'.  So I had to re seat it 4 times, and were testing out each of the PCI cards individually.  The Radeon card kept crashing until I put in the ethernet and spider2.  Weird stuff.  I didn't re seat the chips though, I just kind of pushed them in a little.  It seems to be working now, I just need to get the OS back up to where it was...
