Ummm... thios sounds like an OS problem to me actually... Try booting
from a CD and if it does, do an archive&install.

My G4 gigabit has stopped working. I have an OWC 1000gz processor
and 2 gigabytes of ram. Also an ATI 9800 mac pro video board. When
it turns on the power button does nothing. It will boot into open
firmware. When I type "reset nvram then reset all" it cycles back
to open firmware. If I type "boot" I get an immediate kernal panic.
The power button does nothing. Have to unplug and then replug. I
have 3 hard drives and a firewire drive. I'm hopping that all my
files are intact. I assume I must replace the logic board or the
mac. Which G4 would allow me to plug in my hard drives? I'm using
OS 10.5.8 and would like to purchase an intel mac but find the
price prohibitive. Mac was running very well until about 4 days ago.
