I know this sounds way too simple to work, but just humor me... Try unplugging the powersupply connector from the motherboard and reseating it. Although highly unlikely, it is possible that a few pins aren't making good contact with the socket.
Are you using the on-board video, or do you have a video card installed? Also, if you have another working machine, you might want to try swapping the power supplies so you can rule that part out as the source of the problem. > >> Hi > > ok i have put the cpu back to 300 have removed every thing and tried > booting no go! then started with replacing every thing 1 piece at a time > still no go. > > The mac boots then the monitor goes black and the drives just spin up > but never make a sound like loading ? just as if there is power getting > to them. > > Could the ide bus have gone on the logic board as everything else seems > to work fine in other macs? > > TIA vicki > > > vicki's book and desk -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
