I have a G3-AIO with 2 ATA drives and a
SCSI CD-ROM installed. AT startup. I get
the bong and then the flashing "?" and
that is it. After checking, I am getting
power to the fan, but not getting power to
any of the drives. I also discovered that I
scraped the red wire on the CD power
harness and exposed the bare wire when
I reinserted the drive/sled. It may have
come in contact with the metal casing of
the CD. Is there a fuse anywhere that
could have blown? I see none on the
motherboard, but what about the power
and analog boards? Any other ideas also
appreciated.
