FireWire Bus Out?

My FireWire ports became unresponsive suddenly yesterday. All of them - both FW400 and FW800. I'm trying to trouble shoot this myself before taking the machine into the Genius Bar (I think the AppleCare has expired).


When I go to the System Profiler and click on the FireWire tab I get this message: Warning: Unable to list FireWire devices (in red text)


Has anyone else experienced this? Is the FW Bus fried?



Here are links to images of the error and my system info.
