Could be dead power supply too (doesn't necessarily have to be the fuse). Video card won't keep it from powering up. Is this the model that had to be dropped onto the table due to the parts coming loose in shipping? (Just a tad before my time).

Hi Folks,
I recently dug my IIfx out of storage to find no signs of life. It worked when it was put away 2 1/2 years ago and I even bought new PRAM batteries for it back then as well.
So far I've tried 2 different keyboards, with and without drive shelf in place, with known good batteries from my IIcx and IIci and with the batteries I bought for it back then. 3 different video cards too, just in case it won't power up with a bad video board in.....mains lead is good 'cos it's the same one I used to check the other 2 macs. It also stood for 3 days with no batteries in. Oh, and the glass fuse in the PSU is fine too.
I'm stumped - anyone got any ideas?
Thanks :)
