The power button on the monitor and the tower both light up, but I get nothing else. I have reset the ram, but that has not worked. I have not checked the CMOS battery, and not really convinced that that is the problem. I could be wrong. I'm not extremely knowledgeable in this area, although I am gaining rather quickly. I'm hoping I can resurrect this little baby, and maybe do some upgrades on it. It's still a stock 733 MHz processor, with at least 256 mb ram and an 80 harddrive. Any ideas on how to fix it?
Remove the PRAM battery and ram along with disconnecting the HDD's and all the external stuff. Spray clean all the slots with a residue free contact cleaner. Hold down the CUDA switch for 15 secs, reassemble and hold down the power switch till a long beep and light flashes, It should come up.
