I have some known-good RAM I could try. Good idea. The caps are suspect. There was certainly some goo before I cleaned the board. Everything on the board is very clean, includi…

I say cap swaps. Or another set of RAM? Something is surely dead.

I was getting early G3 iMacs as giveaways even several years ago. If it's a top-end G3 iMac, maybe I'd consider US $10-25, if I wanted one. (Personally I've no interest in PPC/In…
