G4 Cube not booting into anything

Hi All, I have received my used G4 Cube today and just installed 2 x 512MB RAM modules and Airport.

When I turned the cube on I pressed CTRL ALT P & R to reset the settings.

When the cube turns on it chimes but just stays at the grey screen with no apple icon.

Also, I inserted a retail 10.4 disk and it will not boot from this using the C key.

Also when I try and eject the disk using the eject key from booting or holding down the mouse it won't eject.

Does anyone know what may be causing all of this?

Many thanks 😟

15" Macbook Pro 2.4Ghz/4GB/10.6.4, Mac OS X (10.6.4), 11.6" Macbook Air 1.4Ghz/2GB/10.6.5
