After all these years and 70+ macs, I finally got an iMac!  Weee...

$80 for a rev B.

Anyway, I've noticed some weird issue with it...

If I choose "Restart" from the Special menu, it goes blanks, chimes, then does nothing but humms (no drive clicking noises)

If I choose "Shut down" from the Special menu, it goes blank, yet the power button remains green. Powering back up yields the same results as "Restart" does above.

What is this?

I formatted and installed 8.1.  Didn't change anything.

I zapped the PRAM as well.

Could my PRAM battery be dead or dying? Or is there something else I could do?
