On power up it doesn't even beep and never goes to the 'sad face mac'. I know this is a bad sign, but is there anything I can try before taking it in for the customary $300 board swap? I've disconnected everything from it and I can hear the internal drive turning after the power goes on. If I open the sucker up I could try some wiggle and jiggle and reslots, but I'd rather not if there's something external I could try. This is the first time I've seen a totally blank screen failure and no beep. Any help is appreciated ... thanks in advance. -- Kenn R.
