Powermac G4 won't start
I have an old G4. Power was out for a long time, now it won't start.
But power button glows as I push it.
Ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Your internal PRAM battery may be weak or discharged. Suggest you replace the battery. Check this site for battery part numbers and sources. https://sites.google.com/site/macpram/mac-pram-nvram-cuda-pmu-battery-tutorialMac PRAM, NVRAM, CUDA/PMU & Battery Tutorial
