[G4] Dead Gigabit

Dear Jerry,

if your G4 really runs at 533 MHz, it's not a Gigabit but a Digital 
Audio (DA).

The culprit is most likely the PS. But first, disconnect your Mac from 
electricity and remove the PRAM-battery. Wait some 15 minutes, then 
replace the battery and reconnect.

You may try to start up pressing the power button on the front panel.

Otherwise, if - by chance - you got an original USB-Keyboard 
(iMac-type), you may try to power-up via USB pressing the power button 
on the keyboard.

Check that out and let us know again.

Good luck!     Steff
