G5 Will Not Bootup... Options

[Injured Rezz]

Hi ive got a Dual 2Ghz G5 with 1Gb RAM, ive had it since december and has been running Logic 7 sweet. However i go to turn it on the other day and it will not boot up. I hear the chime noise and the fans start to run. But no display comes up at all. I have tried the apple help site and have tried restetting the PMU but it hasnt helped. The mouse lights up as normal, so i presume the keyboard is getting power as the mouse is USB'ed off it. So just to test its not the monitor for sure, i waited a while incase it was booting up with out displaying. I then pressed the eject on the keyboard to try and open the DVD, but nothing happened. The only other thing is if i leave it running for a few minutes the fans get faster and faster and sound like its not going to stop, so i power it down by holding the power button.

Any help would be grateful!

ah ive got it sorted now, i took everything apart and put it back together, and it works, so it was probably just something working its way loose!

my G5 is doing this exact same thing as I type (i'm using a different computer to write this). This is the second time this has happened. Where the fans just start getting louder and louder and stay at full blast. Last time I decided to hold down the power and shut it off midway through this. Now I am not so sure I should do that because I'm afraid I might damage something. Why does this happen? What can I do to stop this?

right...if i remember correctly it was the ram that had worked its way loose, turn the G5 off, take it apart, then pull the ram out and put it in again. I dont know if it does it for other things being loose, but just check everything is in secure. Let me know if it works ok

oh yes....i remember i turned it off multipul times like you did with the power on button when it was malfunitoning, and it did not damage it.
