I had almost these exact symptoms in a PowerMac 6200 a long time ago. It was a bad power supply.
Have you tried a known-good, new, PRAM battery? That also might be the problem. Some Macs won't start up without a good PRAM battery. You can get a new one for far cheaper than a power supply. I'd bet money it's either the PRAM or the power supply. If a new PRAM battery doesn't fix you up, if it were me, I'd just go ahead and grab a new power supply. -Nat On 1/18/06, Dick Grable <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Have a gigabyte ethernet G4 400mhz that will only spin the fans for a second > or two.
