So that Ti-1Ghz is back to life 
got another board from a delerict Ti-1Ghz bought for 20 Euros (broken screen, broken hinges, wrecked case...), swapped it, been VERY careful this time. cleaned and changed the old thermal paste.
But strangely, it would only if i zap the PRAM, i had to do 5 - 6 chimes, no less, otherwise it would show the question mark... also would not wake from sleep. PMU reset would do nothing...
been looking for a solution for a week, then found on a forum today, "start with Shift-Ctrl-Power..."
with no other explanations, never heard of that start-up key comb before...
Anyway, it worked ! Boot like new. Happy ;D
