Early 2006 model won't run but has power
Hi all, have looked through and can't find my exact fault appearing.
Unit is. 2006 model 1,1 only ever upgraded the ram to 5gb from original 1gb(2*512mb) ran fine for years like this with new ram in. Recently it was taking ages to restart unit. Press power button and white light would come on for few seconds then flash continually no display, no start up chime no extra fan noise.
Tried replacing with new ram this did nothing. Ran with casing off and checked diognosis LEDs when pressed the diognosis button lights up the trickle and the powr light only. Any thoughts on where to go next as don't want to end up buying all new internals if not needed
Bu iyi bir soru mu?

Reset the SMC. Leave unplugged for overnight reset the SMC, try to boot. This could be a bad HD, the PSU, Graphics Card or a logic board issue. Boot to Hardware Test and check what it says.

Hi machead3 thanks so much for taking the time to respond to me. I have tried to reset to SMC by leaving unplugged overnight then pressing the SMC button (both unplugged and plugged) this did nothing at all.
I've tried to boot to hardware test via holding down D and by manually ejecting disk drive and putting original software disks in. Nothing has worked.
One thing I have noted is that when SMC BUTTON is pressed then released the CPUA & CPUB OVERTEMP LIGHTS flash once red then turn off. --- not sure that is relevant just want give as much info as possible.
I have now removed cd tray and cd, graphics card, HDD's, and both RAM risers and the internal clock battery, but am at a loss to know what the problem is, any and all advise greatly appreciated :)
