Comment:

I have purchased a used 1 year old g-4 mac with 280 gig for video editing. It has booted for the last few days just fine. Today the "power up light" on the front will only light if I hold it in...and will not actually boot up or start anything. I really need help due to a project I am editing next week. If there is a shortcut or tip to fire it back up...please send anyinfo. Thanks.

There is a very small button on the motherboard (mine is right next to the battery) it is about 1/4" square with a round button in the middle. It is like a reset button, press it and then your mac will start te next time you hit the "Start" button.
