G4 Problems

[elmyr]

When I attempt to switch on my G4, the light briefly glows and then goes out. It just won't start up. Anyone have any idea how to fix this - or what the problem might be?

Many thanks

How old is the G4?

Perhaps the PRAM battery is dead, or there is a loose internal connection somwhere (have you done anything inside your computer recently?). More serious issues could be a dead HD and/or dying power supply.

That is where I was going with the age of the computer.
