The PCI Graphics has a special procedure, if it doesn't power up. It  
appears to be dead, but can be revived ... couldn't find it on Apple's  
site, but its one of their tech docs. Something about pressing CUDA,  
then closing the case, and pressing the power button on the front  
before plugging it in.

Can't remember complete instructions ...

Also ... don't power supplies have a reset button somewhere?
