There are people here who can help with the Console logs. Is there media in the optical drive? Does the machine start up OK from a boot CD-ROM? Oh! what about resetting PRAM? PRAM battery OK? For the hardware on this loaded machine, I'd start unloading it in roughly this order: Unplug all USB peripherals except keyboard, mouse. Unplug all external hard drives. Unplug one of the monitors, or maybe both, and substitute a known, good small monitor. Remove PCI cards. Unplug internal hard drives, first two, then all three, and try a boot CD-ROM. Reseat RAM.
