I've had this happen ion a IIci before, but instead of not turning on it wouldn't turn off. The problem is caused by, as Jeff stated, the electrolytic can-type Capacitors in the boards leaking. In the case of the IIci I found one under the actual power supply had leaked. I wiped the board down with a bit of dilute alcohol and a soft cloth to get the stuff off the board and it recovered and hasn't given me any trouble since.
Thanks, Mark. You've *just* answered what I was going to start as a new thread! LOL! :-P
