Hey Larry,

You might be looking at a Motherboard replacement. Check if any of your
ports are defective or malfunctioning. If you're firewire port is dead then
its a Mobo issue. No amount of software hardware check can you discover
this. However, if you can get your hands on MacTest Pro CD for G3, then it
might detect Mobo issue.
