Okay, So I bought a Powermac G4 400MHz(PCI Graphics) from a friend. It came with 320MB ram. I had 2 512 sticks of ECC ram at home. I took out the 320MB ram sticks and put in the 512 pushed the powerbutton, no bong(it never bonged in the first place when i bought it) and nothing come up on the screen. I though "hmm, maybe its to fast(its 133MHz ECC ram). Can you guys help me?

None of the G4 machines were compatible with ECC memory.
