Q: Power Macintosh G3 No Post
I recently acquired a Power Macintosh gG3 desktop (the one that a monitor sits on top of), and i plugged it in and pressed the power button, and I heard the Mac Chime. I ordered a DB-15 to VGA adapter so I could try it with a monitor, and there was nothing. No chime. There are lights and the fans are spinning. Ive tried removing PCI cards, swapping RAM, resetting the Motherboard, and everything else I can think of. Right now, all it does is spin the power supply fan when I press the power button. The hard drive was spinning before, but it doesn't now. From What I can find, it was made in 1998.
Any help would be appreciated. I included a picture of the computer, so you can see the model. (The RAM and PCI cards are removed for the Logic Board picture)

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.2), 16GB RAM, 15", 512GB SSD.
