Power Mac G3/G4 wont boot

My cousin has a B&W upgraded to 500MHz G4. Up until this week it was working well. It started taking much longer to boot and to switch between tasks. Now it won't boot, not even from the Mac OS X CD. If I disconnect the drive then it boots from the CD, if the drive is attached it will not boot. I am going to find an old disk I have with 10.4 and try to install it, but I wonder if it could be a dead disk controller? Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
