[G4] dead G4

[Larry Parsons]

No, I haven't touched the ram but I did pull the PRAM battery and replace it 
with a working one from an old PCI model G4 that I am parting out. There 
didn't seem to be any difference in batteries other than the mfgr.
I've tried the reset button next to the battery and still not even a murmer. 
  I'm not getting any signs of life at all, not even the fan in the power 
supply spins.
Could a fresh battery help?
