It might be worthwhile to try to zap the pram. I would suggest zapping the pram 5 -- or more -- times.

I have a beige G3/333 MT that just up and quit one day. I came downstairs, pressed the power button, got the startup chord, and no video. In addition to the built-in video, I had installed a Rage 128 card, which I know works, because it went to another machine (the one I'm using right now) along with the monitor. The monitor light goes to green, then back to amber. I also do not hear it access the drives. Here are a few things I tried:
1) swapped out RAM
2) removed all PCI cards
3) unplugged all hard drives and removable drives
4) screwed around with the cuda button, removed and replaced battery in compliance with what some people told me
And nothing. is there anything else I can try?
I had this problem with the same kind of computer and never could find an answer from the Mac gurus in town so I am anxious to hear any suggestions to fix this problem as well.
I can say that zapping the PRAM didn't help. I tried that several times without success. Swapping out the vid card didn't help either.
