G4 stuck in boot loop

spiro · 11-19-2007, 08:08 AM

I have a main "off" switch on the G4 power lead and I shut it off yesterday from that switch,basically cut power to it (Ive done it before)
When I tried to start it this morning, by hitting the power button, it wouldnt boot past the windows logo (tried safe mode, last known config....etc).
Safe mode causes a blue screen and restart (too quick to read)
After a few unsuccessful tries, it now got stuck in an endless loop where it will show the "infill" logo then go to a blank screen and a few seconds later it shuts of and restarts
Any ideas on how to get it back?

Ok..... I tried starting from the restore DVD, but then I realized that it never even gets there. It resets itself before it even gets to the boot device.
Do I have a broken psu? is there anything I can do to test that?
