Sounds very much like a low PRAM battery. Can cause problems long
before the Mac starts forgetting time and date.
I'm on the verge (today) of buying a G3 iMac for a
very good price, however the seller has told me:
"The computer is fully functioning and this hasn't
affected the computer's performance for as long as Ive
had it....When powering on the computer nothing comes
up on the screen UNTIL you hit the restart button the
side of the machine. It does this everytime you try to
boot but, but after hitting the restart button the
computer powers up just fine. The machine is
completely restored and clean and like I said this
power up quirk does not, to my knowledge, affect
anything of the computer's performance."
