If the motherboard was fried would it not fail to attempt power-on? You said you upgraded the cpu, would you still happen to have the original cpu to test out?

Should I get another MB? I've checked the HD and it seems OK. With or without the hd, no further action . The monitor flashed once on startup, coincident with the Ka-chonghg, and I do not hear anything from the floppy drive, when I tried starting up from that with the hd disconnected. I also tried starting from a CD. No luck with either the C-key or with shift-option-command-delete. The three-finger salute fails, as does the pram-zap, but the startup button on the keyboard works. I can't think of anything els yet. thnx for everything, paul -- -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
